Metanomics is proudly hosting a mixed-reality event during the Enterprise 2.0 conference in San Francisco on November 4, 2009. The event will take place from 11am PST to 12pm PST.

Host Robert Bloomfield will be joined by:

Neil Katz, an IBM distinguished engineer who will be discussing IBM’s role in the development of virtual world technologies.

Mark Kingdon, CEO of Linden Labs, who will be introducing their new Enterprise platform, code-named Nebraska.

Steven Aguiar and Douglas Maxwell, project and technical leads at the Naval Undersea Warfare Center.

3DTLC has been covering the Metanomics-hosted launch with a number of articles:

As we wrote yesterday, Metanomics will broadcast the launch of Linden Lab’s much-anticipated Nebraska platform on November 4. Metanomics is now turning the launch into its latest mixed reality event which will open with the launch announcement, followed by a discussion of virtual worlds, enterprise, immersive media and enterprise firewalls, under the title “The Virtual Enterprise: The Future of Work.”

They also have a great little interview with Amanda Van Nuys, aka Amanda Linden as she discusses Nebraska and what Enterprise services Linden Labs will be offering.

“On the first point, we’re working on a whole host of things to improve the experience for the enterprise customer – for example, from the Second Life work Web site, we’ll have an enterprise registration and an enterprise work-related orientation place. It will be a ten minute orientation which gives people the time to learn the basic functions, the basic things you need to know to attend a meeting or whatever else in-world.”

Virtualworldnews has also written about the event:

The presentation is slated for a mixed-reality event at the Moscone Center and in Second Life. Second Life and Linden Lab observers expect the demo to offer nuts-and-bolts into Nebraska specs, packages, and what ever Linden plans on calling the new stand-alone virtual world package.
