ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions. ***************************************************************************** Thank you all for these great quotes. They'll be on the virtual wall soon! We'll be launching The Tech's Second Life presence December 5--and I'll be sure to let ASTC know about it! We're using Second Life less as a public installation than as a way for museum professionals to collaborate, prototype, and talk about museum exhibit design in a virtual forum. We'll be offering lots of classes and programming. I hope many of you will join in when we open.
