I really enjoyed watching/listening to your presentation. The whole thing was pretty inspiring. By the way, I would love to meet up with you and CogDog in Sydney – I can hardly believe that we aren’t having him come to speak to us in school education! Meanwhile, lets keep innovation ticking over. Once again – thanks to you and all the other beaut SL innovators.

We captured some nice images – but machinima experiments were ‘interesting’….LOL! We did capture a little footage – but yet to see if it’s worth editing…I’ll keep you posted. Would love to post a link to your slides on the various blogs – mine and LearnScope’s!

Oh.. and a special thanks to JazzyDee and Achariya from me too! It was great for participants to get a chance to meet a number of SL residents inworld!

I’m just beginning to explore Second Life (I know…I’m late!) and it’s an incredible experience.

Any chance you’ll be uploading your talk or bits from it?
