Touring educational sims using Open Sim and hosted on the Reaction Grid.
Being a former NH girl and growing up less than 50 miles away from the border with Maine, this sim is one I had to visit. I'm standing in the self-portrait art garden and loving the view!
While Open Simulator is in Alpha and thus not as stable as Second Life -- it is open source and Reaction Grid charges only $US25 per month for an entire island.
Thursday morning kicked off with panel debate chaired by Paul Collins with erudite contributions from the panel - Andy Piper, Rebecca Mileham and Bill Thompson
