Second Life
Introducing Misschief Swashbuckler, my atavar's or representative's name in a Second Life of my own creation! Second Life is a virtual reality world, currently occupied by individuals, businesses and universities alike.
The video from the London Oncology Clinic shows their use of it in conducting a virtual tour of the clinic to prospective patients. Murdoch University Library has embraced Second Life and its video explains the need to familiarise students with the latest information technology strategy. Much of the information on http://wwww.secondlife/ website has stalled around 2007, so I'm unsure how much use is currently being made of it. Seems like a lot of fun for the casual user, although I haven't downloaded the software. I enjoyed the one page satire of Second Life at http://www.getafirstlife.com/, or Under 18? get a Teen First Life.
