Sun Microsystems Sun Pavilion @ Second Life
It was a Happy & fruitful Weekend and fun too. A very useful information on net . As I am a Internet geek! being on line past two days my Firefox browser jammed with more than 30+ tabs!!
One of the exciting thing which I enjoyed a lot was while visiting Sun Microsystems Second Life Sim Sun Pavilion.
It consists of 2 sims. First sim consists of main entrance to the Sim were everyone can watch the Main Pavilion hall & look into the company product,services,books and a theater called ‘Andromeda Theater’ were periodic meetings are conducted . This room also provides free stuffs like Shirts,Jeans, bags and of course! Duke!!!. There is a Wonderful Museum on the first floor wherein you can walk and read the posters on the wall. This gives the history of the company. Its a glass house quiet bright and transparent. Another building in the same Sim is the Sun Hardware Solutions, here you find servers, computers etc of Sun which is informative.
The second sim consists of some more cool stuff!. Club Java for regular party events, Sun Services speaks about Suns IT services, Customer Training rooms were each one of us learn about Sun Trainings,coming to the main hall we can know about Suns Open Eco Projects. Sim also provides free to use Sand Box ground. If you are a builder & interested in building you have tutorials to build items in Second life.
It’s really a fabulous & a cool place to visit & looks very realistic, you have a Transport at each point to navigate at all place.
During my visit to the Sim I met 3 java guys. All are from different parts of the world but all come here with one cause called Java!. We chat for a while in Club Java and share our ideas, myself came to know about JavaFx, Project Wonderland and Jmonkey Server Game server. An area to gain knowledge about new technologies which inspired me to write and post in my website for free download to learn these tools.
One sad news is that I was new to this place and missed an exciting event held on May. Hope I will not miss any event from now & henceforth . Further updates on other Java related SL you can join the following groups for Sun SL Events and meetings.

Do not forget to take your own Tommy Car!. I already have one!! & also the Mini Duke! which roles, drinks coffee, waves hand etc on your shoulder. Its a nice SL pet!
