Full summary by Seb Chan available here.

After [Seb Chan's] presentation Michael Twidale from the University of Illinois reprised the joint presentation about museums making tentative steps into SecondLife that his colleague and co-author Richard Urban had presented at MW07 in San Francisco. Michael (like Richard before) certainly peaked the interest of some in the room who I had the feeling had barely thought about Second Life before – although I notice that the extremely minimally staffed Design Museum in London has just been doing an architecture event and competition in Second Life (see Stephen Doesinger’s ‘Bastard Spaces’).

Shawn Graham posted a digital version of the talk he recently gave at the Immersive Worlds Conference. A very nice appraisal, keep it up!

Around March my car started running rather roughly – then it stopped running altogether. Since I’ve been jetting around to conferences I wasn’t able to get it looked at until today. Apparently the culprit was not any mechanical failure caused by deferred maintenance. No. instead:

Mice.

Chewing on my wires.

Apparently the voracious bastards chewed through the wires connecting the engine to the onboard computer. I know the first thing to do whenever you’re having PC problems is “check the cables.” Now I really wished I had called Click’n'Clack.
