You are now an administrator of the Australia group. Thanks Chris. This is for you to post items of interest concerning Australia and gather a community.

Hi Chris
I'm waiting for a primary school version! I'm also involved in a trial of vws for use in schools.
What about you?

I'm doing MEd Tech, getting more involved in the development of educational environments now which is interesting.

Hi Chris,
I'm in the process of investigating SL for my library at SCU. The uni has a grant to buy an island, and I want the library to be there from the start.

I wasn't actually involved in writing the grant, but wish I had been. I'm doing a big presentation on the 24th of July for my Library, and am mapping out a tour, stopping by Murdoch and maybe looking in on the Snow Crash book discussion amongst other things. Should be fun!

Thanks Chris, we just last night got our first Australian customer for grid hosting. I was thrilled! We have been in web development/3D for over a decade but only since recently joining virtual worlds have we gotten an international client base and a cool new community of friends that is hopefully making the world a little closer. Thanks for going out of your way to send a nice message!

Hi Chris

Thanks for the warm welcome. Nice to meet a fellow Aussie even if we are somewhat distant from each other.

Cheers

Denise
