We had a great first Sloodle session @ jokaydia last night – which focussed on some simple stuff – including a basic overview of what Sloodle is, signing up avatars, the web chat tool and the presenter tools. Thanks to all who came along to join us! ;)
Our aim with these session is to give people a chance to play with the tools, and also to connect to other community members who are also interested in exploring how Sloodle could be used in their projects. I am also looking forward to exploring ways that we might use Sloodle to create a sort of 3D wiki at jokaydia’s Edusquare space (Slurl).
I’ve established a jokaydia Moodle Sandbox @ http://jokaydia.com/moodle to support these activities. All jokaydia residents and visitors are welcome to get in touch if they’d like to use this space for their own experiments. Email jokay Wollongong for more details!
And of course – you can always visit our Sloodle Hut @ jokaydia (SLurl), which provides a space for us to meet and collaborate around Sloodle and related tools on the Islands.
Sloodle Events!
Our next Sloodle event will be on 11 March 2009 at 8pm AEST – keep an eye on the jokaydia Events calendar for more details.
Oo!… and dont forget to go visit the Sloodle.org website or Sloodle Island (Slurl) to connect to the fabulous Sloodle team who hold regular events!

Hi Jokay, sounds like you are off to a great start!
Is that going to be a regular date and time for the meetings? We’d love to add your events to the SLOODLE calendar!
Thanks Daniel! We will do a number of Sloodle events as part of our SL Skills project which I’m just pulling together now. When I have confirmed the dates I’ll add em to the forums! Hopefully we can bring in a few of you fabulous Sloodle folks as part of that too! ;)
It’s great to see Sloodle events on Jokaydia!
