Is your work here in Second Life as an individual or are you representing a foundation?
I am in SL as a part of my work at JAN.
I ran across NPC while looking for resources for non-profit organizations and businesses in SL. It seems to be both a great resource and a very friendly community within
Some say the professional networking opportunities in SL have been extraordinary. Have you found this to be true? If so, what advice would you give someone for effective networking in SL?
We're fairly new to SL, so don't havedefinitely finding a lot of experienceopportunities in this area.Second Life for networking. I do think that there are great opportunitiesthe best way to make connections and getis just to put yourself out there, talk to everybody you can. You never know other organizations.when an opportunity might pop up!
Why do you think virtual worlds such as Second Life are valuable for nonprofits?
I think the advantage to virtual worlds are that they are a way to present a great amount of information to a large number of people in a very economic manner. The opportunity to host events to disseminate knowledge and promote awareness is a great benefit.
A list of events is available at http://www.jan.wvu.edu/training/On-the-Road.htm and we provide monthly webcasts at http://www.jan.wvu.edu/webcast/index.htm
Current/On-going needs (RL or SL)?
