Hit me up on SL sometime! (Sendao Goodman is my name)

ps I haven't been on SL at all lately but I will definitely look you up when I do. Keep me posted on developments, please, and what you think is inspiring or worrisome.

I'm focusing right now on trying to balance/exercise other arms of me (so to speak;)....involved with local community, arts and group networking...and the reinforcement of certain values...creativity and collaboration on very simple individual levels first...connecting/collecting more troops in a way...planting seeds. It will all come together, the 'real' and the 'virtual'...soon. I am so happy to know you are exploring SL's potentials....there is so much that someone with your gifts can do to help create a pier10 out of this microcosm...please keep it in mind and perhaps play with the concepts?:)I still think the boardwalk/amusement area (http://www.omidyar.net/group/bwi/news/13/) for charities would work well...an ongoing event..
