Guest Blog Post from Netera Landar
Thursday, January 14th, 2010Hi everyone,
Rhonda is nice enough to allow me to network with you. For one, I want to announce that she’s going to be my guest on a Second Life author/artist chat. I’ve booked her for Thursday, Feb. 4, 2010. I’m very excited to learn about her writing, as I’m sure all of you are. For those of you unfamiliar with Second Life, it’s a 3D virtual/voice social network unlike anything you’ve ever seen. 80,000 people from around the world are already inworld. After establishing a free account on www.secondlife.com, creating an avatar, you teleport to sims you desire to explore. I’ve created a coffee shop (on a sim called Terric), an Asian tea house (on Starrs), both of which I’m currently booking weekly chats for. Now, the conference center is something different. Authors, publishers, pr reps, will be able to rent monthly a workstation to have a virtual office area. I can provide a lot of realistic add ons. The top floor will be rented per session for virtual book signings, lectures, etc. It will all be affordable. My goal, mainly, is for it to be a functional building where authors can come together. It really is a work of art. I invite you to join me. I even play receptionist. You can contact me for more info at Netera@aol.com, or inworld by adding me as a friend: Netera Landar.
