Group 2 Informal trip to SL

Today Group 2 had an informal trip into SL, well the 6 of us that were free at UK lunch time.

We started off looking at some of the travel guides other people had posted. Some of them had errors so although they may contain the guide it is not possible to get hold of them. So this led us to discussing scripting and we took a trip to Education UK to use their sandbox to practice scripting.

We had a bit of communication problems, some people were using voice, but the University's proxies/firewall makes this difficult and so I was using chat, at one point one of the group sent a chat message explaining she was talking one of the group through what I was trying to explain in the chat window.

We succeeded in getting scripts that made text float above the boxes explaining what they were.

Just as I was about to leave I noticed a friend signing on so I spent 10 minutes catching up with here and her avatar.
