Online Event Access
Thank you for your interest in attending the Virtual Journalism Summit 2, a live Murrow Symposium event held April 20 in the CUB Auditorium on the campus of Washington State University. Presentations will begin at 8:30 a.m. PST and run through 2:30 p.m. For the live event, please use hashtag #murrow10 on Twitter.
LIVE VIDEO ACCESS
For those who are unable to join us in person, there will be live streaming video of each presentation. Live video requires a broadband connection and browser with Flash plug-in.
Please check back on this page or visit http://experience.wsu.edu during event times for live event video.
SECOND LIFE ACCESS
For online users that wish to ask questions at any of the sessions, there will also be limited interactive access within Second Life on WSU's official island. This event will be among the first to take advantage of Second Life Shared Media, a new collaboration media technology that is exclusive to Second Life Viewer 2. Using Shared Media, participants will be able to watch live video of the event inside the virtual WSU campus alongside other Second Life participants from around the world.
To access the event in Second Life, you will need to download and install the Second Life Viewer 2 client at: http://secondlife.com
Once installed, search for "WSU" in inside Second Life to visit the virtual WSU campus. If you have Second Life, you can also visit the campus directly by using this link:

Please note that presenters and the "real world" audience will not hear Second Life voice chat, so only text chat questions to presenters will be considered for the Q&A sessions. If you have technical difficulties or are unable to access Second Life, we encourage you to check out the live video stream.
