Second Life Chat

I find it very strange that when we talk about something in class, I end up doing it in second life with co-workers. I'm sitting in a meeting right now and we are talking about real chat in Second Life and i'm the only one in the group who can't voice chat, its almost as if i'm deaf in second life! Looks like i'm going to have to buy a mic!

Good to know that you're doing this at work. So to those who still have some doubt about the use of SL in business here is a perfect example.

Day 1 in Second Life

Technically, this isn't Day 1 since i've used Second Life before. For the purposes of IN SC 539, however this is Day 1. My Avatar, "ilike kungfu" took her maiden journey into Second Life. I, or rather ilike, embarked on a mission to complete all the tutorials, learning how to chat, use inventory, fly, and move. Initially, I presumed this would be a quick trip, however I ran across someone who wanted to chat, Recon2 (last name protected). Recon2 had been here before as a different avatar. Clad in a Birthday hat and carrying an Ax, I didn't believe Recon2 was a "friendly" avatar, but i was mistaken. He (I'm presuming the person behind the avatar is a male) took me on a hike though orientation island, meeting all the gods. Insightful indeed, leaving second life for the "first" time was hard, no idea what Day 2 and beyond has in store for me!
