And while [talking](https://blog.oclc.org/lorcand/archives/001363.html?ref=lorcandempsey.net) about other lives, those interested in thinking more about Second Life in an educational setting can follow the discussion on the Eduserv Foundation blog ([second life on eFoundations](https://efoundations.typepad.com/efoundations/second%5Flife/index.html?ref=lorcandempsey.net)) where this is a particular interest. They held a dual-world [symposium](https://www.eduserv.org.uk/foundation/symposium/2007/?ref=lorcandempsey.net) (rl-sl does not quite have the ring about it that ac-dc does) recently around the theme *Virtual worlds, real learning?* See the [debriefing](https://efoundations.typepad.com/efoundations/2007/05/symposium%5Fa%5Fbri.html?ref=lorcandempsey.net) and follow [blog commentary](https://technorati.com/posts/tag/efsym2007?ref=lorcandempsey.net) via Technorati. 

> Almost all the Powerpoint slides and all the streaming media from the symposium are now available, both thru the [Eduserv Web site](https://www.eduserv.org.uk/foundation/symposium/2007/presentations?ref=lorcandempsey.net) and [in-world on Eduserv Island](https://slurl.com/secondlife/Eduserv%20Island/153/55/26?ref=lorcandempsey.net). \[[eFoundations: Symposium: streaming media](https://efoundations.typepad.com/efoundations/2007/05/symposium%5Fstrea.html?ref=lorcandempsey.net)\]

Andy Powell (aka [Art Fossett](https://artfossett.blogspot.com/?ref=lorcandempsey.net)) has a short video briefly describing Eduserv, the Foundation and its Second Life activities. Watch out for the discussion of, ahem, *slashups* (i.e. second life mashups), and the description of the recent Eduserv Foundation [grants](https://efoundations.typepad.com/efoundations/2007/05/grants%5Fawarded.html?ref=lorcandempsey.net) to projects exploring educational uses of Second Life.  
  
[Another](https://blog.oclc.org/lorcand/archives/001026.html?ref=lorcandempsey.net) good radio voice 😉
