Sococo

Sococo is a re-imagined front end for remote collaboration. Unlike Zoom, Webex, and GoTo Meeting, it does not simply present the user with an address book from which they can initiate audio, video, or chat sessions with other users. Instead, it recreates the physical world in the virtual realm and structures communication around familiar concepts such as rooms. Namely, if a user is in the same room with another user, they can see and hear each other.
