Virtual Worlds at Sun: Imagine the Possibilities

I'm not one to miss a party, so when I heard that Sun is throwing a big one - I made sure to mark it in my calendar: Tuesday
April 29 in Second Life! (Sun employees ONLY)

It's not often I get to attend an event with Jonathan Schwartz, Don Grantham, Bill MacGowan, and so many other executives, so I'm going to make sure I look and act my best by attending a Sun Employee Second life workshop on customizing my avatar and functioning (walking, communicating). That way, I know I'll be appropriately dressed, unlike some of my colleagues who have inadvertently wound up in Second Life in the buff!

As a newbie to Second Life, I'm sure I'll encounter a few hiccups at the party, but luckily several Sun Second Life mentors will be
available to answer any questions I have. I also heard they'll be passing out welcome packets containing Sun swag, an agenda, and a map of the Sun landmarks, so I feel like I'll have lots of support should I encounter any issues.

But the most exciting aspect of this whole shin dig is that I get to mix and mingle with many old and new Sun employees from around the world. What a great way to make our Sun world feel smaller - and more connected.

Hope to see you there!
