  Ah, yes.  I remember that now.  We are not exactly happy with the UI
and the push-to-talk nature and unoptimized long latency, but it still
seems to work nicely on later Joyride builds.

  To try it:

  * Put two XOs on the same mesh so that they can see each other in
    the neighborhood view.
  * Start Etoys on one of them (let us say this is machine A.)
  * You probably want to dive in to a "new project" by clicking the
    top cloud on machine A.
  * from the menu bar at the top, press the share button (circle with
    a dot) and choose "My Neighborhood" on machine A.
  * a few seconds later, the shooting star icon is visible on machine
    B's neighborhood view.
  * On machine B, click on the shooting star in the neighborhood
    view.  This will connect these two instances.  (Just a normal way
    for any activity on XO.)
  * If the sharing works properly, you will see a "badge" on each
    machine.  Click on yellow "A" button on each.
  * You'll get an obscure, small UI.  There are three checkboxes.
    Check the right most box on each machine.
  * Hold the button labeled "Talk" on machine A (or B), talk to the microphone, and
    release the button.  You'll hear the voice on the other.
