Summary:  You've heard the hype about Second Life®, and how it's becoming the environment of choice for ... well ... everything, it seems. But work can't stop just because you want to hang out. Fortunately, the IBM® Lotus® Sametime® Software Development Kit (SDK) and Second Life scripting make it possible to combine the two. This tutorial shows you how to create a Sametime bot that listens for conversations in Second Life and relays them to your IBM Lotus Sametime Connect client or vice-versa, making it possible to let people alert you when you're needed, but you're not "in-world" as well as to be in-world without missing important conversations.

What's this?

Removing this interest does not alter your profile, but rather removes this piece of content from a list of all content for which you've indicated interest. In a future enhancement to My developerWorks, you'll be able to see a record of that content.
