Find below the entire chat history from the Virtual Worlds Hot Topic Discussion that took place at the EDUCAUSE Annual Conference 2007 in Seattle, Washington.

This chat history is actually a combination of two that were captured, mine and Chris Collins from the University of Cincinatti.  A HUGE thanks to Chris and all of the many volunteers who made the event possible.  Also, major thanks go to Peter DeBlois and everyone at EDUCAUSE who made this possible, especially Justin James and his AMAZING team of techs - these guys are the best.

Before the chat, here are some pictures you might enjoy. (Special thanks to Joanna Robinson for the pictures - if you have pictures you'd like to see posted here, please email me with the URL)
