I’m so excited to share with everyone that my alt, Machinima Guru, is now on the Teen Grid! I met Barry Joseph, of Global Kids, at the Machinima Festival in New York in November of 2006. While there, I expressed that I’d like to work with the teens to educate them about Machinima. The approval process started back in January and I was cleared for entrance around mid-February. After a period of preparation where I gathered as many supplies as I could from the Main Grid, I requested entrance in mid-March. After some delays, I discovered that I could finally log in!

I arrived during a live stream of a Youth Conference, so there were a number of teens on Global Kids island. It was almost a surreal experience as I could not build, didn’t know where anything was, and was afraid to do anything for fear of offending others. After the initial shock wore off, I had the chance to speak with some of the teens and let them sound off about the issues with their grid. I’ll be blogging about my experiences here, as well as giving the teens a voice on Second Life Insider. If there’s anything that you’re dying to know, leave a comment!
