Face the reality, Electric Sheep

I really like Electric Sheep, an innovative and dynamic company, probably the biggest company working on Second Life (apart from Linden Lab, of course).
Electric Sheep is a thermometer of what’s going on in the metaverse, and there are really bad news: remember that CSI:NY had a show in which Second Life was involved?
Well, Electric Sheep […]

CNN, here it comes!

Yes, my dears: CNN is COMING!
This is an important event: when you have someone “professional” talking about Second Life, soon the whole thing gets more professional than before.
This is very good news for businesses working in Second Life. Enjoy the show!

RMS Titanic, sailing again!

Of course, I’m sure you remember the RMS (Royal Mail Ship) Titanic, one of the most impressive ships of the 20th century, sadly famous because it sank just few days after its launch.
The Titanic is now open to the public in Second Life! There are residential spaces available for lease, or retail.

The glorious ship is […]

Helping Burma in Second Life

It’s just symbolic, but Second Life avatars helped a lot in raising the attention of media and people about it. What is “it” ?
I’m talking about the “Burma” question, of course, and if you were on a desert island with Jessica Biel in the last four weeks, you can read more infos on the wikipedia […]

top SL website: the Avastar

The Avastar is probably the most famous online magazine about Second Life (note the name: Avatar + Star = Avastar).
It’s sort of a “light” magazine, without too many technical articles, and usually with short pieces rather than long “poems”.

I like it because it helps in getting the right news from Second Life world in minutes.
I […]

Second Life a tool to get a real job

Sometimes it’s odd, isn’t it? Second Life, a VIRTUAL world, is used to get a REAL job.
How it comes?
Companies are increasingly starting to use Second Life for online interviews. Better for you to start learning Second Life well, my (unemployed) friend!
