The Show Must Go On
Following the sad events leading to the disruption of today's conference we understand that many will now no longer be travelling into London to meet at the Hospital. However, IBM are kindly setting up a virtual "refugee camp" expo for displaced avatars at their Virtual Business Center in Second Life so that everyone can still meet up this afternoon. IBM will also be broadcasting the event live on-line and will include their regular "Boris in Wonderland" chat show from the Business Center live to the internet, so that those wanting to see what's going on can also watch on-line without entering Second Life if they don't wish to.
The virtual expo will be available from 1pm-4:30pm UK time (8am-11:30am EST) and will include the opportunity to
- Meet and greet over a virtual coffee
- Setup a virtual trade stand free of charge (arrive early if you want to do that!)
- Go on a tour of IBM's new Virtual Green Data Center exhibition
- Attend the "Boris in Wonderland" chat show sessions

As you can appreciate there is not yet a fixed agenda, so if you would like to help form it by running a trade stand, being a guest on the chat show, or running a presentation, please contact Kevin Aires from IBM asap: and attach a jpg of your company logo.
