Technical Difficulties

Our second GREEN meeting in Second Life with Simran Sethi was held on Tuesday Night. The topic on the table that evening – “How can we green our own homes?”. The crowd was there and ready to go with questions for Simran and it was shaping up to be another informative meeting in Second Life and then…..the audio went out. Boo! It’s kind of difficult to hold a live Q&A when you can’t hear the audio….and so it goes when you’re dealing with such new and cutting edge platforms – right?

That said – we have to commend the attendees that night. Everyone was very patient and understanding of the situation and an insightful discussion on “cradle to cradle” design broke out between the avatars in the room. After numerous attempts to fix the audio problems – we had to throw in the towel. But we’ll be back next week, rested and ready to go. We were able to save some of your questions from Tuesday night and will address those at the next GREEN meeting, as well as questions on our new topic “Cities and Waste”.

We held our first GREEN Meeting with Simran Sethi in Second Life this past Tuesday night. It was a huge success and we maxed out the number of people we can have on Sundance Channel Island at one time. A thoughtful live Q&A session took place between Simran and the audience in attendance with questions ranging from “What is a carbon footprint?” to “How much energy is used to hold a live event in Second Life?” You can browse our photo section from the main site or you can click here [www.sundancechannel.com].

We’ll be holding these discussions forums with Simran in Second Life every week. Next weeks event will cover the topic of “building green” and what you can do “green” your own home. We’ll be filming that event and will post the video right here in the Second Life blog.
