Free Tours in Second Life
In October, STA Travel began sponsoring free weekly tours of Second Life in partnership with Landmark Island. Every Wednesday at 7pm SLT, Sean Voss takes SL residents on an hour free tour. Using a metahud, Sean is able to give everyone on the tour an itinerary beforehand, which keeps the group relatively intact as they teleport about SL (Sean did lose a few folks in Greenie's, but who hasn't?).
These tours are designed for both new and older SL residents, to give them some history on some of the better known sims on SL, and to see some new places. Sean has recently finished a guide to SL, "Second Life In-World Travel Guide," which will be on sale at STA Travel SLI, as well as RL retail bookshops. "Second Life offers an almost endless amount of destinations for the virtual traveler. My hope is to catalog, and more importantly, share the best of the best with the community."
Each week, Sean will conduct a different tour of SL. If you can't make it, the tours will be available on metahuds so that SL residents explore on their own. But come down to STA Travel on Wednesday and join the group on a new exploration of SL. Sean's promised that Greenie's will no longer be the first stop.
