Can you have fun and call it work?

We will start with a demo of Second Life and will talk about why it is a platform. We'll look at some scripts and see how easy it is to build things.

Then we'll visit a couple of online stores to see how people are making money in this new world.

We'll talk about what this means for entrepreneurs and developers. I hope to cover all sorts of questions, things like:

  • What are Lindens?
  • What are the opportunities?
  • How do you deal with technical suppport?
  • What are the costs and what are the benefits?
  • What are your ideas for doing something creative?
  • How can you make money selling items that cost just a few dollars?
