I'm a teacher who discovered Second Life while home for two weeks following minor surgery. I'd heard about it in educational podcasts and checked it out. It's awesome. Teachers, administrators, college professors, and professional development deliverers meet here to collaborate and have fun. I cherish my new personal learning network and the friendships I have made in SL.
Yesterday Southern G taught me to surf! It's so much fun! It's probably the most interesting inworld physical activity I've found. There is actually some skill to it, not just passive animation. Here Bermy and I are taking a break from surfing so we can chat.
