My avatar name is StormBear Hitchcock and he was the last guest of the night. We discussed the the creation of Books For Soldiers and the technology used to bring Books For Soldiers to Second Life.

Angelico’s show is part of the MBC’ (Metaverse Broadcasting Company) 1600 in-world screens and the show is seen throughout Second Life and is also available on the web. If the below player doesn’t work for you, you can also see the show HERE.

Look for it!

BTW, did you know BFS built the largest English language library in the Middle East during the first year of the Iraq war? BFS and a soldier stationed at the Baghdad Airport set up a library for troops in the field to borrow books, DVDs, CDs and video games when the came to town for mail and supplies. BFS volunteers sent him cases of books daily and after the year was up, it was the largest English language library in the Middle East.
