Getting around the island is easy. Each building on the island has a monorail station, with cars arriving every few seconds. Most of the buildings also have flying vehicles for guests, and there are teleporters located in the center of the hub and the enterance to the rest of the buildings. For those deciding to walk, a foot path circles the island.
THINGS TO DO
When you arrive, you'll be in our Hub. Here you'll find our job postings, event listings, and our gift vendor. Take the escalators up to the monorail station for transport anywhere on the island, or use the sim-wide teleporter system for instant transport. View the latest headlines from Thomson Scientific & Reuters, and take home an interactive copy of Thomson's 2006 annual report.
The first stop on any tour of the island is our Lab. The highlight of the lab is the Tour of the Drug Development Cycle. This tour details how Thomson Pharma aids drug development at each stage of the cycle, and features animated characters & a narrator.
Your next stop will be the Library. Here you'll find free copies of all our popular essays, reading areas, and forms to submit journals for evaluation.
The tallest building on the island is the Office, which features 10 floors of meeting, working, and conference space. Meeting space is freely available to anyone who wishes to use it, with a booking form in the lobby.
Your final stop will be the Amphitheatre. This venue seats over 50 avatars, features tracking spotlights, a scripted lectern, and large video screens for presentations. Guests can mingle in the downstairs bar after the event.
Those guests looking to do a little exploration have plenty of small touches to discover. Scattered across the island you'll find wildlife, an hourly fireworks show, free water-craft rides. Relax by the beach, or cliff dive into the tiered waterfall pools.
