Hi all, As I mentioned in an earlier post, earlier this year I created a Second Life group called "Museums in Second Life." Until now I haven't done much with it, partly because the group still lacks a space in Second Life.
Over the last few weeks I've been discussing the possibility of acquiring a plot on Information Island that would allow us to have a place to gather and take advantage of the resources being developed by the Second Life Library and the Tech Soup community. This morning I broached the subject with the MCN board, who are interested in learning how MCN might encourage our explorations. I would be interested in hearing from others who have been exploring Second Life about what this might entail and how we can cooperate work with other related groups (such as the New Media Consortium). The best way to go about this would be to schedule a meeting in Second Life for us to meet, greet and discuss what we can do. If you are interested in joining us, send me an e-mail with the days and times that would be convenient (.e.g Wed. nights CST are good for me) and your SL alias. Cheers, Richard Urban rjurban at uiuc.edu
