[Opensim-dev] Opensim beginner

[Len Brown]

Yes, I too highly recommend OSGrid.  When you download the server from them
it's already pre-configured so you do not need your own local database
running (such as MySQL).  and if you use Hippo Viewer, which they recommend
on their site, it's already pre-configured to connect to OSGrid
automagically.

Once you name and locate your region on the grid and log in, you can find
your region by bringing up the Map and then searching for the name of your
region, then you can teleport to it and have fun building, etc.

Wright Plaza is a great place to TP to and get all sorts of items you can
enjoy on your region too.
