Owners of two of Second Life's more colorful and successful retail businesses will be today's guests on Metanomics at 11AM PST. Stroker Serpentine and Temporal Mitra will be joining us to discuss the challenges of managing virtual businesses, managing virtual employees, marketing in Second Life, adult entertainment, and intellectual property issues.

The event will be held at Metaversed Island and viewed simultaneously across the Second Life grid and on the web via SLCN.tv video broadcast. If you'd like to participate in the event at Metaversed Island, do arrive early to secure your spot.

Event Partners Around Second Life

Even when Metaversed Island is full you can still participate as if you are there! Metaversed Event Partners across the Second Life grid are holding events of their own displaying the SLCN.tv live feed. You can participate in the conversation from any venue by joining the in-world "Metanomics" group chat.

The official Second Life Events Listings has a good list of venues for today's event. We'd also like to give special thanks to three venues that drew the biggest crowds last week. Starting with the top site:

Muse Isle
Home of RDV Animations & Rendezvous Avatar Animators - is proud to be an Event Partner for Metaversed Island, www.metaversed.com & the Metanomics Series hosted by Professor Robert Bloomfield. We promote these events in advance through our island groups and on site promotions. It's always a lively group at The Arena here at Muse Isle and we are happy to participate.

Amphitheater at Colonia Nova
The Colonia Nova sim is a low lag sim, modeled after Cologne, Germany under Roman rule, about 53 BCE. The Amphitheater seats up to 80 avatars. Colonia Nova is one of the sims governed by the CDS, Confederation of Democratic Sims, the oldest functioning democracy in SL. Members of the CDS include many lawyers, bankers and experienced SL trend-setters who participate in the discussions following Metanomics presentations in a relaxed atmosphere. Refreshments provided!

MetaPartners Conference Area
MetaPartners is a Belgian B2B communications company, specialised in virtual/real world interaction. Join us for some post-event jetski-racing at the Vivaldi Winter sim.

Do you have a great venue that holds regular events? The Metaversed Event Partners page has promotion tips and instructions on how to become an Event Partner for our next session.

Meanwhile, we're looking forward to seeing you all in the Metanomics group chat!
