Well. I just went by the conference center and it looks cool. I'm going to stay up (it starts at midnight in my timezone) and watch the show...

Every time I click on Teleport, it tells me "location not found" and it's 3 mintues to start!

Any help?

I tried for half an hour, and could not get in. Waste of time!

# BradA said on August 30, 2007 7:24 PM:

Sorry about the techincal issues getting in... We max'ed out the place and had to turn people away.  I am planning to get the sildes and demo videos posted in the next couple of days...

Heheh, that was fun, despite the technical difficulties.

I think my geek thermometor exploded once I sat down in a virtual world to hear a talk on Silverlight.

It wasn't perfect, but it was a very interesting experience and as ever 2nd Life delivers more hope for the future than anything totally awesome right now.

Gutted I wasn't able to be a part of this... There is a massive delay between me process a movement key and that action being carried out.  Did anyone else get this?  I am in the UK.

Martin

PS if you could do a normal video that would be awesome ;)
