Education in Second Life
I went to a meeting today in Real Life about Education in Second Life. I’ve written a fuller report over at http://redgloo.sse.reading.ac.uk/ssswills/weblog/1674.html.
But there was one really spectacular project called Theatron where they produce in-world models of theatres correct in detail. They even have to advise peopleto re-size their avatars – as apparently most people have avatars which are the equivalent to 7 foot tall!
The SLURL for their island is: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Theatron/183/23/48

Coventry Island Launch
Several of us went to the launch of the Coventry University Island.
It was great fun - they have a nice island, lots of potential.
I've blogged in more detail over at http://redgloo.sse.reading.ac.uk/ssswills/weblog/, there are also some photos on flickr (either by the above blog or http://www.flickr.com/search/show/?q=coventry&w=56786265%40N00 may work :))
