2015 EDU: VWBPE Posters. Part 2. Helper groups in Second Life

Helper groups in Second Life

Some of the helper groups in Second Life put up great poster builds to tell people about the help they offer. Here they are. These builds will be available at least till the end of March, maybe longer. I have added location links to the actual helper places ins SL. Those places will remain after VWBPE15 ends.

How to handle a Hypergrid address 

From any Hypergrid-enabled grid, paste the address into the navigation bar of Firestorm and press enter. Or paste it into the world map search bar of any viewer, search, and click Teleport when the destination is found. If it doesn't work, don't give up. Try again in a minutes.  Sometimes the first try fails (probably times out).  And try again a few hours later. Some hypergrid destinations are offline part of the day.
