The photo above was taken at last night's TechSoup Mixed Reality Event. Jeska Linden , Community Manager for Linden Labs, has the mike in her hand, while her avatar is behind the podium in Second Life.

Rik visited the homeless avatar: I decided to pop into SL to check it out. I found a bedraggled looking avatar sleeping in a cardboard box with a crude sign asking for donations. At the Museums in Second Life meeting, I heard about this event that will take place on Friday. There's YouTube video here.
