It’s Official - We’ve Moved!

Filed Under Wasp!, jokaydia, secondlife
It’s been quiet on the blogging front lately… but definitely not on the virtual front! 
After a few months of tinkering and planning on the Island of jokaydia, we’ve finally moved our projects there officially and the Island is open for business.
We’ve even managed to hold a few events, including a live tour for participants at the UOW’s ‘Serving Up the Future’ Mini Conference and the NSW Learnscope Regional Event - Go Virtual.
Above: Panel Session at Go Virtual, September 2007.
It’s been an exciting few days too - with three new residents joining us on the Island - our first virtual tenants!
Already they are starting to create interesting things on their new virtual plots.. it’s going to be exciting to see what develops. For those who are interested - there’s one plot left!
Meantime, I’m focussing on setting up the information tools on jokaydia - in particular the tools in EduSquare - our Second Life in Education hub on the Island.
The other big move has been demolishing the last pieces of Jo and Sean’s Virtual Meeting Space in Wasp. Although it has been wonderful to move to the Island… I was a bit sad as I removed the pieces of our space from the land and parcelled it up for sale. I’ve come a looong way since I first went land shopping in early 2006!
A special thanks to Sean for all the hard work, creating and re-creating, facilitating, workshopping and managing he did there!
Anyway, below is a series of pics commemorate my original virtual home! Enjoy!
