  2. Williamsburg, Va. -- In a bid to reduce federal travel, the General Services Administration on Monday announced that it is building virtual meeting centers at federal buildings across the country.

    Now, "GSA itself can begin [to] practice and use the technology for videoconferencing that is taking it to another level and really convince people to move off airplanes and on to telepresence," Administrator Martha Johnson said at a press briefing here. The award was made to AT&T in an $18 million task order under GSA's Networx, the government's massive contract for telecommunications services.

    The centers will be located at each of GSA's 11 regional headquarters, in Boston; New York City; Philadelphia; Atlanta; Chicago, Kansas City, Mo.; Fort Worth; Denver; San Francisco; Seattle; and Washington, as well as an additional four locations in Washington.

    The high-tech centers will be available to all federal agencies at a fixed hourly rate. They also will be offered to stateside military families so they can meet virtually with service members overseas, a news release said. "We want to be showing it off," Johnson added.

    The centers will have pricing that will make people think twice about booking flights, Johnson said, calling mobile work "the secret of the future in terms of sustainability." She said she is trying to move GSA to embrace the changing workplace.

    The technology is designed so that each room looks familiar and users feel as if they are sitting at the same table with their faraway counterparts. It uses three televisions and a camera with face and voice recognition that follows the person who is talking, according to GSA Chief of Staff Michael Robertson.

    It's "very much a merger of technology," Johnson added. It "allows people [to] genuinely feel as if they are having a meeting together."

    The first centers will be installed in early 2011, but some time will be needed before they are fully operational across the country, Robertson said. Because the facilities will be located in its buildings, GSA will enjoy first priority for using the centers, but other agencies will be able to purchase remaining time on a pay-as-you-go model.

    After the centers are operational, agencies will be able to order and schedule virtual meeting sessions through a Web-based portal as well as through a help desk staffed around-the-clock.

Ratings & Review on the Play Store
On this blog you can find information about ratings and reviews on Google Play, as well Google’s policies for posting reviews.

You can write reviews for anything you've purchased or rented from Google Play. Reviews are a great way to help others decide what to get by telling them about your experience. Google doesn't pay anyone to rate or review content on Play, and we expect reviewers to be honest and unbiased.

How ratings are calculated
Play Store ratings for apps, and the corresponding bar graphs showing the proportional number of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 star reviews, are calculated based on the app's current quality ratings from user reviews, rather than the lifetime average value of user reviews, unless the app has very few ratings. This gives users more insight into the app, and a better understanding of its current state, since apps can change over time, and often add and remove features. We show the total lifetime number of reviews as this provides users with valuable information about the app's use and longevity.

Ratings for other content on the Play Store (books, movies, tv shows) are calculated based on the lifetime average value of user reviews of that content.

What others will see when you leave a review
Most reviews are visible to everyone, and the Play Store app will indicate whether your review will be public or private.

Public reviews will show your name and image from your Google account and past review edits to anyone who uses Play (including developers). Private reviews are usually for apps in early access or beta testing, and only the developer can see your review, including your name and, account image from your Google account, and past edits. For both public and private reviews, developers are also able to see your language, device and country and device information (such as language, model, and OS version). Developers can also reply to reviews and may use this information to reply to you. If you edit a review, other users and developers can still see past edits unless you delete the review.

Ratings and reviews posting policies
Ratings and reviews are meant to be helpful and trustworthy. Reviewing content on Play is a great way to share helpful feedback and assist other Play users in finding great content and services.

Guidelines for writing a good review
Make your reviews useful and informative.
Try to include both positives and drawbacks.
Keep it readable; check grammar and spelling, and don't use excessive capitalization and punctuation.
Be nice to others.
Google Play's policies for ratings and reviews are below. Reviews that don't follow these policies will be removed, and anyone who repeatedly or egregiously violates them may lose the ability to post reviews on Google Play.

Spam and fake reviews
Your reviews should reflect the experience you've had with the content or service you're reviewing.

Don't post fake or inaccurate reviews.
Don't post the same review multiple times.
Don't post reviews for the same content from multiple accounts.
Don't post reviews to mislead other users or manipulate the rating.
Don't post reviews on behalf of others.
Don't misrepresent your identity or your connection to the content you're reviewing.
Off-topic reviews
Keep reviews on-topic and relevant to the content, service, or experience you're reviewing.

Don't post solicitations, political or social commentary, or anything else that is irrelevant to the content, service, or experience you're reviewing.
Advertising
We want reviews to be useful, and they aren't useful if they're promoting something other than the content or service you're reviewing.

Don't post promotional or commercial content for any products or services, including affiliate or referral-based promotions.
Don't post phone numbers, email addresses, or links to other websites.
