New VWBPE Record Set
Marty Snowpaw, one of the many organizers of VWBPE 2010 said that “over 5, 000 avatars attended the two day event” between 12th-13th of March 2010. That means VWBPE 2010 set a brand new record. Marty Snowpaw also said “the conference is rolling a long with record breaking attendance”. VWBPE 2010 was a 48 hour in-world conference hosted at the VWBPE regions. VWBPE 2009 organizers announced last year that around 38, 00 unique with over 600 new avatars attended which set a new record. You can view the recorded videos of the conference, click here.
I couldn’t make it last year but I went along to the conference inworld this year and throught it was really interesting. I enjoyed listening to many presentations both inworld and on the live broadcast stream via VWBPE Live Media. The cyberland German Teen presentation, M Linden’s presentation and Viewer 2.0 presentation I found interesting.
Perhaps next year the conference could be for the whole weekend but I am sure there will be even more records set. Seeing future conferences in 3D in Second Life would be awesome to see. The organizers, presenters and volunteers etc did a great job this year and I would definitely go next year.
