Is Your Avatar Attending AALL in Portland?

[Lyonette Louis-Jacques]

Mine is! Hopefully...:-) I plan to make a mask with my Avatar's face on it to carry around AALL. If I'm successful, my Avatar will be giving a brief presentation on the SL workshop in the First World/Real World! :-) And might appear at various programs...:-)

Very cute Lyo. My avatar will make an appearance during the SL program I-2 when I will be speaking with Lori Bell from the Alliance Library System. Keep your fingers crossed technology works at all ends.

Well, my avatar was just 15 minutes or so ago teleporting from the course spot to my "home" spot and there was a long delay. When he reappeared, he'd experienced a gender change! There's nothing like an involuntary gender change. Aarrgghh! So now I have to figure out how to change him back. Something must have gone wrong with SL. I might need y'all's help to get him back to his original self... It's gonna make the Avatar mask kinda out-of-date if I can't change him back! :-) Besides, I like his original, generic look! Help!

[Lyonette Louis-Jacques]

Never mind - crisis averted! He's back to his original self. Yay! :-)

Fabulous idea, Lyo! I can't wait to see your mask!

I keep meaning to get some Moo cards to use as business cards for Anne, since our printing office wouldn't let me put her name on my regular cards when I got them reprinted. But it didn't happen again this year.

I definitely need to make some kind of alternate name tag or sticker to put by/on my badge. Hmmm...

I've just added my Skype and Gtalk IDs to my business card, along with my personal blog address. I thought about adding Twitter, but figured anyone really interested can find that on my blog.

Okay, I just made this bit o' silliness that I may or may not actually wear. If I do, I will likely try to print it out smaller than a standard size nametag, because the official nametags take up plenty of space on their own! :)

[Lyonette Louis-Jacques]

Very cool, Meg! I want one! :-)

My avatar attended AALL in Portland. Had a great time! Visited the Exhibit Hall, made at least one new friend, talked to speakers, and even asked a question! How's that for a First-Time Attendee...:-)
