DISQUS

Great to see so many talented Aussies doing great things with VW platforms for such good causes.

I guess one thing that is not clear for me is the transferability factor between each of these various VWs. I am an educator and have spent a fair amount of time and resources setting up in SL. I love the fact that in one VW you can have contact with people from so many different places. In fact, I have actually leveraged this aspect of SL in my lessons, as I am sure many other educators have. So, while I am very excited about a VW with some serious Aussie content, I am also hoping that there will be an easy way to move between the various VWs without having to re-invent the wheel each time. I still believe the only way the various VWs will survive in the long term is by a high level of interconnectivity.

Keep up the good work.

Hi again,

Just thought I would let you know, I tried to pop in and have a look at AuGrid, but found the instructions for modifying the SL viewer too hard to understand and couldn't seem to get the Hippo Viewer to download at all.

Again, as an educator, I would love to support Aussie enterprises establishing VWs, but if I may be so forward as to suggest, the setting up of the viewer and the instructions for doing so really need to be a lot more user friendly, otherwise you are in danger of only having users with far higher levels of computer knowledge than the average punter being able to access your VW.
