I never thought I would ‘get it’ but I am hooked on Second Life. I have spend hours wandering this Metaverse, checking out museums, libraries, regions and meeting some pretty terrific people. I have attended classes, meetings and socials. Each time I come away impressed. Now I want to learn how to hold these classes, give presentations and show video.

I am so hooked, I decided to rent a house on Eduisland II, it is right on the corner of the convention center. My husband thought I was nuts, but now after watching over my shoulder all evening I believe he may be joining me. I need to learn how to decorate effectively and make the place feel warm and inviting. I think one of the appeals of Second Life is the attention to aesthetics and detail. I am going away for a few days and will not be in SL too often, and I am going to miss it.

Below is a photo of my son sleeping in a 19th century school house we visited a few years back, seems appropriate to hang on the wall of my virtual home, in a virtual learning environment. The other is of the ISTE social I attended last night, I am in the green shirt, my back is to you. Hope to see you soon, do not hesitate to drop by some time.
