Robin Ashford's Posterous http://robinashford.posterous.com The primary focus of this blog is my work & explorations in Second Life posterous.com Mon, 27 Jul 2009 10:40:00 -0700 Ready for my presentation in the Karuna Resource Center in Second Life tonight-What do you think? http://robinashford.posterous.com/ready-for-my-presentation-in-the-karuna-resou http://robinashford.posterous.com/ready-for-my-presentation-in-the-karuna-resou

Ok, I've loaded the slides, tested the viewer, and rearranged the furniture for the zillionth time. I think I'm ready for my first presentation as Consumer Health Librarian on Karuna Island in Second Life (SL) tonight at 6:30 p.m. SLT which is the same as PST.

This one is a PPT presentation on how to search MedlinePlus for information resources on HIV/AIDS (I would prefer to demonstrate live on the web inside Second Life but that function is not yet available in SL (I'm hopeful that's coming soon). The presentation is free (as is everything on Karuna Island) and all are welcome!

If you already have SL on your computer, this Slurl will take you straight to the Karuna Resource Center: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Karuna/33/46/23

If you've never been in SL and would like to attend, newbies are welcome too :)
Below is the link to a website where you may sign up for a free SL account and then enter SL on a very well designed, fun and useful private orientation island.

Karuna Resource Center in Second Life
I Just put this sign up for tomorrow's presentation in Second Life - now I just need to finish my presentation slides and upload them to SL, insert into viewer, place the viewer and move furniture, purchase new deck furniture and place on decks, meet with Jenaia about the welcome area and I'll be finished for the day and almost ready for tomorrow's presentation. Whew! BTW - I'm posting this to twitter, posterous and flickr all from within Second Life. I think that's pretty amazing.
