2018 HG: Hypergriders: What happens if your grid fails? Can you keep your stuff? Can you keep your friends?


Hypergriders: 
What happens if your grid fails?  
Can you keep your stuff?  
Can you keep your friends?
What can you do to protect yourself from the closure of your grid and to minimize the consequences if it happens?
Nothing stinks like the smell of losing everything you’ve built due to choosing the wrong provider. --   Terry Ford, Digiworldz

Grids can fail in three ways

  • Go out of business, close
  • Have a software catastrophe with extensive loss or corruption of files.
  • Yield to a DDOS attack.

If your grid fails, you have questions

  • Can you keep your stuff?
  • Can you keep your friends?
  • Can you keep your (business, entertainment) location?

What can you do to avoid problems?

2018 EVENTS: WW:: The web grid. The social grid. Opensim.life Grid. It's all about people.



The web grid.  
The social grid.  
Opensim.life grid. 
It's all about people

OpenSimulator creates 3D virtual worlds.  Web-worlds do that also.  OpenSimulator worlds can be big, elaborate, and scripted.  Web-worlds can be reached in a browser.   With complementary abilities, these virtual worlds should collaborate.  Here is an example of that.
 OpenSim.life Welcome

    2018 EDU: WW: Educator communities for the virtual worlds:



    Educator communities 
    for the virtual worlds
    Yes for, not in. And so not limited to the virtual worlds.  Educators are focuised on education, not virtual worlds. Virtual worlds are just be one way of pursuing therir objectives. We virtual worlders tend to think virtual worlds are particularly useful for educational objectives and have a growing collection of demos.  Here are some places we could talk about those.

    What online educational support can offer

    • In class teacher's assistant with internet skills and resources.
    • Support for homeschooling.
    • Support for disability schooling.
    • Support for distance education.  
    • Support for work-study education.

    Educationally relevant interests in the virtual worlds

    • Education and libraries
    • Self-education
    • Writing
    • Blogging
    • Theater and video production
    • My choices

    2018 WW: Bring yourself into a web-world: Get an avatar that looks like you.


    Bring yourself into a web-world: 
    Get an avatar that looks like you. 

    You can meet your customers on the web.  Show them around the 3D virtual place you have set up to show what you offer.  Talk with them just as if both of you were in the same room.  You can have an avatar that represents you.   And you can have an avatar that looks like you.

    An interactive, social 3D writer's 
    workshop in a browser. 
    And how to mix workshop
    with interactive fiction

    A writer's workshop is developing in a 3D place on the web (3DWebWorldz).  The features of the workshop can also support interactive stories (allowing several levels of reader participation).  This article shows how.
