In the events calendar is it poss for you to create the ability to click on an event location - and go there or have it available as a landmark. its soooo easy to get lost in SL.
i have spent the entire time of an event just trying to get there! very disappointing and daunting to arrive and everyone is leaving - plus i cant learn anything that way and feel i cant play raindeer games either.

I think theres a bigger problem with the separation between this website interface and the game itself: cant we toggle between the two (not logg off/on)?, and one should be linked to the other in terms of contiguous info and presence of the user/avatar. i hope i described this clearly enuf...

Bottom line the website and game should be one - why log off when we can be all-on.?
please let me know if there is a way to do the above (i'm new & maybe just dont know this part yet) or if it is planned...
Many thanks.

I'll answer one tiny part, if I'm understanding what you mean by `toggling between the two' -- Even if the client is in full screen mode, you can use either Alt-Tab or the Windows-Key to get to your desktop.

And you can always ask a linden for a landmark to an event, Jennifer usually has the goods.
