Last year I had the good fortune to meet John Boring, CEO of Accelerate. His company has perfected the use of virtual worlds for getting worldwide employees oriented to a company's inner workings and outer image. His talk at the upcoming vBusiness Expo, On-Boarding New Hires With Virtual Worlds, promises to shed some light on best practices in this arena as well as tell us how the Active Worlds and Multiverse platforms can be leveraged to the greatest advantage.

If you'd like to hear about these things and a good deal more, make sure you're at Zebra Crossing in Second Life® at 10am Pacific time on the 25th!
