Sun, Intel to Speak on Grid and Networking Issues in Second Life Tomorrow

Tagged:  •  

The Metaversed Geek Meet, which has become an awesome weekly social and networking event for Second Life tech heads, new media geeks and bloggers will for the first time, feature a little structure this week! The group has been getting so large, that a number of members have asked that we at least loosely organize it. We've invited SUN and Intel, who're both prominent real life tech firms operating in the virtual world to give short talks on their grid/networking efforts at the meet, as well as invite Cadroe Murphy, inventor of the ShapeGen tool used by many SL builders to demonstrate his newest gadget.

Intel's Parviz Peiravi, and Sun's Brian Foley will give short, 5min talks on their topics followed by Q&A from Metaversed members. We've deliberately kept the formal part of this short as I'm keen to not loose the "loose gathering of friends" feel we've managed to maintain at these weekly events.

When and Where

The Geek Meet will start at 1pm SLT, 9pm GMT, 10pm CET on Friday 15th and last for about an hour or so at Metaversed's Business & Technology site [SLUrl]
