The result was ConferNet, a flexible, multisite network that combines satellite telecommunications, low data-rate digital videoconferencing, and a customized Microsoft Windows grapbical user interface.ConferNet delivers interactive childhood and adult education, emergency health diagnoese, and government support systems over distances of many hundreds of miles. The Tanami people developed their own plan for managing and using the network to link their far-flung commands based on the Windows graphical user interface icons.
