* Laptop w/bag (liveblogging from San Jose)
* Camera (to remember what you beautiful people look like)
* Shoes (never forget the good shoes for dancing)
* Clothes (magenta and red, a fiery feeling)
* Books (any suggestions?)
* AMO Game (always connecting the dots)
* Chocolate (the raw cacao powder this time)
* Hand Cream (see Beth Kanter's tips for liveblogging post)
* I heard I love you! card (ask Jean Russell for more info)
* Virtually Delicious (our Second Life design team cards)
* Saving Grace (a gift for a friend)
* Go Green Guide (playa planning 101)
* Delight (for manifesting good cheer)

Thank you.

To the dozens of supporters who have found us here, thank you! To our hardcore advisors and leaders who have come here to vote, thank you also. This process has been an amazing journey for the Amoration/ManorMeta team; as this project has gone underground for the last few months we haven't been out there talking about the detail development work happening behind the scenes at AMO Studio. Thanks for keeping us in the spotlight and helping us to find new partners, supporters and friends from Japan to Israel!
