Beyond Second LIfe: Other Virtual Worlds

Indeed, Second Life is not the only virtual world. Recently, several web-based virtual worlds have become part of the virtual world discourse.

Some people are beginning to question whether Second Life is being replaced. At this point I see the situation as a variety of possibilities all poised to respond to a common set of interests. None of these possibilities is necessarily better than the others per se but rather offer different responses and opportunities.

After a long absence, we are almost back in action


After a long absence the TLAVC (Teaching, Learning and Visual Culture) House in Second Life is almost ready to re-open its doors. The Educators Co-Op where the TLAVC was previously located underwent an overhaul and a relocation. Now, we have more space, a new house, and more people interested in what we have to offer. We are not ready to share the landmark for the new location just yet, but be patient.
