TechSoup holds regular meetings for nonprofits in Second Life and I have been attending regularly and sometimes facilitate like this I did this past week. So, I've been reflecting about effective facilitation of virtual meetings in Second Life Right now the primary method of group interaction is via unmoderated chat interface.

Over fifty avatars attended. I attended a lecture on the use of technology in the legal classroom last month in Second Life, facilitated by Rebecca Nesson. And, while, I'm not a lawyer, the discussion was so relevant to technology adoption/change issues and it Rebecca was a damn good virtual facilitator. I learned a lot.
