Nonprofit Commons in Second Life Launched Last Night

Last night over 100 avatars in Second Life and 60 people in San Francisco gathered to celebrate the opening of the Nonprofit Commons in Second Life.

Speakers included Anshe Chung/Ailin Graef (the world's first virtual millionaire who donated the space for the NPC), Glitteractica Cookie/Susan Tenby of TechSoup (the NPC Team Leader), Jeska Linden/Jeska Dzwigalski (Community Manager of Linden Lab), In Kenzo/Evonne Heyning (Creative Director at Amoration.org), and Coughran Mayo/Dick Dillon (the NPC Main Tenant Contact).

You can see tons of photos from the virtual event (including swing dancing!) here on Flickr and a few photos from the real life event here.

Let us know about other photos, blog posts, audio, and video recordings from the event in the comments. Thanks!

Update: Check out Lotusmedia 2.0's liveblog of the event here.
