Mayor Newsom to make another SL appearance

Mayor Gavin Newsom's not completely a stranger to Second Life, having been interviewed by Reuters' Adam Pasick in Second Life at the WEF media event in Davos, twelve months ago.

Well, Newsom's back at the New Globe Theater in Second Life for an discussion with Philip Rosedale over the parallels, opportunities and challenges of managing two famously diverse, tech-savvy and dynamic communities with global profiles: the City of San Francisco, and Second Life. Newsom will also be discussing his priorities for his next term, and both Rosedale and Newsom will be taking questions.

It's not an open event, of course. Only a limited number of people will be able to sit in the audience tomorrow afternoon - and with less than 24 hours notice from event organizers Millions of Us, it seems unlikely that we'll be able to wedge any of our writers in there.

Millions of Us' Celebrity Trollop has not indicated that transcripts or recordings of the event will be made available afterwards, so we presume this is not to be.
