Strange Coincidence
So, Monday morning I get this phone call regarding an innovation pilot study on Second Life. In casual conversation I mentioned that I had experience "in life" and that my final class at GV is using many virtual tools like Second Life. Now i'm able to be a part of what my company may use in the future to create a "presence" in Second Life....very interesting. Thought i'd share that little nugget of information :)
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!
