    Acacia and prior art

    I did some looking and in just a few minutes I discovered what appears to be some prior art if anyone is interested. Apparently the first video conferencing was in 1968.

    This would put to rest any claims that Acacia "invented" anything in 1991 I guess.

    Maybe it's helpful, maybe it's not, but there it is if you need it.

      Email any information pertinent to Acacia Media to:

      timlake AT homegrownvideo DOT COM

      I just forwarded him a 20 page document full of prior art some nice guy was kind enough to send me after reading my article about Acacia Media. I also have not heard a thing from Acacia since declining their license offer. Maybe they have their hands full.

        what the fuck is Acacia?

        it's the name of a tree.
