<title>Second Life Community Convention 2007</title>
<description>
        <![CDATA[
        The concept of a Second Life event in the real world was born during a trip to San Francisco in late July 2005 by FlipperPA Peregrine, Jennyfur Peregrine, Valdeza Anubis, Hiro Pendragon, and a few others who joined us for what was coined the “Real life invasion of Linden Lab” by FlipperPA Peregrine in a witty forum thread. During the trip the idea came up to get people together for drinks during the State of Play III conference. The idea of having a more serious event than just a meet and greet came into fruition after we met up with Jerry Paffendorf, who was running the first SL Future Salons in the Peregrine’s simulator, Indigo, at the time.<br /><br /><a href="http://platial.com/post/2056615">Map this on Platial</a><br />
