Two sets of clubbers could see each other, chat to each other and dance to the same music on Saturday - even though they were in different countries. A nightclub in Brighton, Sussex, and another in the town of Vesoul, eastern France, were linked via the internet in the first venture of its kind. It was the first time that DJs in different clubs have been able to mix records and collaborate together as if they were in the same DJ booth - and organisers say this technology may form the future of clubbing. A similar hook-up was tried in 1999 between nightclubs in Vesoul and Stuttgart, Germany, and was such a success that organisers wanted to see how much more they could do with the technology.
