In just 16.5 hours I’ll be boarding a plane on my way to Tampa, FL for the Second Life Community Convention (SLCC). This will be my first trip to SLCC even though I’ve been active in Second Life since 2004 so I’m fairly excited to meet people and be part of this event.
This is the only conference this fall (out of 6) that I’m attending where I am *not* presenting so I’m really looking forward to relaxing and just being able to learn about all of the amazing things other people are doing in Second Life. There are several tracks to this conference (community, business, and education) and while I think most of my time will be spent attending the educational sessions, I’d also like to catch some of the community track as well because a big part of what I’m using Second Life for is building community among students and I think there’s always value to be gained from hearing a different perspective and seeing examples of what others are doing.
I’m sure I’ll be posting more about the event when I return or over the course of the weekend so stay tuned for more thoughts on the conference.

Enjoy Tampa … I was there not too long ago at USF and it was a nice time. If you can pull it off, go to Burns Steakhouse. Unreal … trust me. Enjoy and safe travels.
