Click here to view or download a talk given by ConnectSafely co-director Anne Collier in Second Life (this is a "machinima" or in-world video of her avatar, Anny Khandr, giving the talk) about the realities of teens on the fixed and mobile social Web. You'll find the full 38-min. talk or - if you need to download smaller files - Parts 1 and 2. Feel free to contact Anne for her PowerPoint slides via anne(at)connectsafely.org. [The two parts can also be viewed in the Web site of New Jersey tech educator Marianne Mahlstrom (aka Knowclue Kidd), who recorded and produced these machinima.]
