Seconded. Its on the east coast which makes it quite incoveninent for midwesterners and west coasters.

*chuckles*

We are planning something in-world for those who can't come RL; I can't divulge details yet as they are not solidified.

A quick update - we have kiosks that will be available in a day or two. If you would like to host a kiosk on your land for in-world promotions, please contact me or another officer in the Convention group.

Saturday night will be a party - we're working on renting a location for just us SLers and convention guests. Sunday we're renting a space for panels, speakers, and other typical convention madness! It should be a lot of fun! Details will be available shortly as we've just about got the web site and some in-world notecards and kiosks completed.

Regards,

-Flip

We are finalizing what will be included in each of our sponsorship packages. This will also include a special rate for in-world sponsor businesses. I hope to have this document completed by the end of the week.

Can't make this. :( But eventually Urusulla and I are going to plan an SL Southeast US gathering. :D

We will wait till it is snowing everywhere else and then have it here in the good old sunny south. :)

I could probably come to this if I had a driving partner. I hate driving into the city alone but it's only a 3 hour drive at the most from where I am. :3

The web site announcement was a wee bit immature. We have the domains registered, but the site is still under construction. Look for completion later this week. Lucah, you gotta make it.. and keep the news of the Philip Clones under raps! :-)

Thanks,

Though it was (understandably) lacking in content, I thought the design was really well done. It was pretty slick looking.

Ha, YES, premature, not immature. Although some would argue both are true!

Thanks Ardith - Lora Morgan has done a GREAT job on the design. Now we just need to finish up the content. Just another day or two! :-)

OMG!! Ok. The *only* thing that was keeping me from being able to attend this Conference was money. After just buying a new house, my hubby just flat out says no way do we have the money (and he is right).

BUT!! Friends in world have been raising money for me! Trying to get enough for me for a plane ticket and the conference ticket. I only need to raise 25k more lindens, and I will DEFINITELY be able to go!!! YAY!! I even already have a place to stay with another SL resident who will be there!! :D

Thank you so so much everyone that has offered this to me! I am so amazed to have such wonderful friends!! And I'm still in utter shock to say the least!! :D :o

So Flip!! Don't let all the spots go!! I should be able to register this week if I can just get this last amount!!

WOOHOO!! I cannot believe this is going to be an actual possibility for me!!! *HUGS* :D
