Virtual World Technology: Get Ready for a REAL Virtual Experience
The concept of virtual world technology, specifically Second Life, stands to revolutionize the way we are living and working today and in years to come. In this session, Philip Rosedale, Father of virtual worlds and pioneer, will prove how this technology is helping to shape the future of communication and collaboration for individuals as well as major businesses today. Philip will join us in Avatar form through Second Life to demonstrate the power and richness that only this virtual world brings.

We are currently working on building our presence in Second Life so we can create a NEW BREED of conference that truly manages virtual distance. Aspects of this and other conferences will be made available should you not be able to attend the actual event or just enjoy interacting virtually with other professionals that share the same interests, job functions, and challenges as you. Use this as a social networking tool to connect with others from around the globe or across the country; and meet people you would never have the chance to meet otherwise.
It's powerful, it's enlightening, and it's the future of where things are going. Believe it.
What is Second Life?
Second Life is a 3D virtual world that is developed and ran entirely by its residents. Second Life is a user-defined world of general use in which people can interact, play, do business, and communicate through the form of Avatars. While Second Life is sometimes referred to as a game, this description is disputed. It does not have points, scores, winners or losers, levels, an end-strategy, or most of the other characteristics of games.
