[can-events] Reminder for Sydneysiders...Exploring Second Life, Friday 9th May

Apologies for duplication
=========================

Are YOU ready to "fly, teleport and change appearance at will"? Many of us
are already leading mysterious double lives, but are Online Virtual Worlds
an over-hyped Web 2.0 bubble or the Next Big Thing? This exciting hands-on
workshop introduces Second Life and provides a framework for understanding
its potential impacts on our life and work. The workshop focuses on the
creation of personal avatars, how to navigate and explore Second Life
safely, and practical management issues any organisation should consider
before setting up a presence in an Online Virtual World.

EXPLORING SECOND LIFE: A one day PC workshop presented by Kathryn Greenhill,
aka Emerald Dumont.
