The 6th Annual Second Life Community Convention welcomes you to Boston! Our volunteers have been hard at work since yesterday preparing for the weekend’s activities, and we are excited about the many terrific sessions, socials, and activities lined up for the convention!
See the General Schedule (Boston) and General Schedule (inSL) for a quick overview, though note that we are aware of pending schedule changes for Saturday morning. Rumor has it a certain CEO may be able to join us in person! More to come soon..
The full program is available online for those arriving in Boston, and those in-world should stay tuned to the In-World SLCC page for links to schedules in SLT, SLurls, UStream channels, etc.
Boston peeps: Registration opens from 4pm to 7pm today and don’t forget about the evening’s social events organized by other attendees!
6PM – 9PM EDT – Mixing Business with Pleasure
Organizer: Mary Ellen Gordon (SL: Pebbles Hanya)
Location: Legal Sea Food restaurant

RSVP Requested to: m.gordon@markettruths.com
Description: Please join business track presenters, volunteers, and friends for drinks and dinner on Friday, August 13th. The dinner will be at Legal Seafood, which is a Boston institution just a couple of blocks from the conference hotel. Unless someone wants to sponsor the dinner, we will all be paying our own way, but it will be a great opportunity to catch up with SL friends and perhaps meet the RL people behind some of the avatars you’ve dealt with or heard about in the SL business community. We will be ordering off the main menu, but need to track numbers due to the room size so please remember to RSVP.
