Hi Emerald,

You *should* be able to set your home to any (non-volcanic) spot of either public land or private land that you own… It’s under the “World” tab at the top of your SL screen. Failing that, you can always enter SL where you last left it (that’s an option on the splash screen once the application is loaded but before you’ve gone in-world.) Though now that I think about it, I suppose getting teleported out by strangers might be a good way to meet new people!

Stephen Abram pointed to some similar info on other 2.0 environments. I'm anxious to see how the academic library SL projects go. <BR/><BR/>I'm hoping to be able to offer an interview with some SL principals in the next few weeks. I'll probably publish it on LISNews. Keep posted! Hi Kathryn–a friend sent me some stats on SL and one that surprised me is that the average age of a SL participant is 31.
