I'll be at a virtual book-club meeting in gamespace this Sunday

I'm "appearing" at a book-club that meets in an online roleplaying game called Second Life, this Sunday at 6:30 PM. If you've got a Windows box, you can get a free seven-day avatar and join the disucssion!

Cory Doctorow will be the debut guest of the Hamlet Linden Book Club, the first reading group (far as we can tell!) to be conducted in a massively multiplayer online world -- Second Life.
This Sunday, Sept. 21, at 6:30pm (PST), Cory Doctorow's avatar will appear in the main auditorium of Second Life, the 3D online society where Hamlet Linden (aka Wagner James Au) is the world's embedded journalist. Cory will discuss his acclaimed novel *Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom* with an in-world audience of Second Life residents.
