Land Rental

Would you like to learn about virtual world teleporting and its uses in education? Wanna bring your students to something exciting? Maybe you’d just like to join a group of like minded individuals. Buying land in Second Life is expensive, renting is a hassle. Come see my very clean region with no ad farms, no griefers, no ugly buildings. BUT, understand, it’s all new. So it isn’t perfect, but it sure is fun being in on the ground floor of something that is going to revolutionize the way we teach.

PS: This is not for beginners. If you are just starting out with virtual worlds, go to Second Life and take the orientation. Spend about a month there learning and building. Don’t worry, we’re not going anywhere.

So if this OpenLife is not perfect, who is going to support me when I have trouble?
Us. The community. You’re joining around 27,000 other users in the OpenLife. If you have a question or problem, I can pretty much assure you that it will be answered within 24 hours if not A LOT sooner. Believe, I didn’t join OpenLife without doing some research. There’s a live community here.

So how do I do join you and Petrona, Professor?
First come see the land. Go here and get an account: http://openlifegrid.com/ Look around the site, these are your friends. Sakai is the founder and very active in everything he’s got brewing.

Login and go to “Avatar Toolbox.”
Add an avatar. Enter a name and password for your avatar and PETRONA as your home region. You can add more avatars later and change your home region if you would like, I hope not.

Next, you’ll need to make a copy of your Second Life viewer shortcut. In the “Target” field you’ll need to copy and paste this: C:\Program Files\SecondLife\SecondLife.exe” -loginuri http://logingrid.net:8002/ (Change the install directory and folder if you need to)

OK. You’re ready to enter OpenLife. Click on the new link and enter your new avatar’s login and password. You should arrive in Petrona.

Take a look around and choose a parcel you like.

All rentals are subject to refusal if the group and I determine the land is not being used for educational purposes. This region is like a teen grid in Second Life. There is no griefing, guns, nudity, pushing, or any other kind of disrespect tolerated. We are here for the betterment of our students. However, extreme creativity is not shun. Everyone is different, hell, I’m not one to speak. I often come to meetings with a beer in my hand, so I’m no saint. But at least I’m not shooting someone from the back of my fire breathing dragon. So, we understand each other. That’s good.
