A Life Beyond (Second Life)

3-D knowledge at the Speed of Light!

Sun is moving fast on many fronts in 3D worlds - but
focusing on education. I hear they will have an
important announcement this week at their Worldwide
Education & Research Conference in SF:
http://www.events-at-sun.com/wwerc08/agenda.html

The agenda shows SUN Founder Scott McNealy speaking
wedged between the Immersive Education Forum and Lunch
the second day. I'm GUESSING that this placement is
intentional and hints that Sun has BIG news for
educators interested in immersive environments.

There is a live video feed, FYI, on the agenda page.

If you (like me) are scratching your head about what
SUN offers Second Life educators, be sure to watch
this MIT video on their roadmap for
MPK/Wonderland/Darkstar:
