The SLACTIONS 2010 conference will take place on the MBS (Manchester Business School) Second Life Island on November 18-19, 2010 (http://www.slactions.org).  The conference will provide an international forum for presentation and discussion of research on most areas currently enabled by metaverse platforms.

SLACTIONS is an international conference with a unique hybrid format held simultaneously in a virtual world (Second Life) and at physical locations in countries around the world on the topic of metaverse platforms.

All paper presentations and plenary sessions by guest speakers will be held on-line in the Second Life (SL) virtual world, but also projected locally for participants that attend the physical local chapters. Participants can also follow the proceedings broadcast on the Wimba classroom and will have the opportunity to ask questions through this platform as well as through SL.

Pre-  and post-conference electronic forums will be held so that session paper abstracts (or full papers) can be read before the conference, and authors can interact during one week before and after the conference.  Podcasts, slideshows and links to research websites are also welcome and encouraged.

If you are interested in organizing a local chapter at your institution, please contact us as soon as possible. Contact information: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
