Digital Futures on Second Life
Digital Futures, whose conference I attended last week, was keen to push its presence on Second Life – the virtual online community attracting much attention at the moment.
I tried out SL a few months ago to get an idea of how it works, but had better things to do with my first life. I thought I’d revisit it though, to check out the Digital Futures island:
As you can see, it’s an impressive place they’ve built. The streaming videos are a particularly nice touch and they promise exclusive online events in the future.
I haven’t, as yet, seen another person to the island, however. So if you’re a Second Lifer, visit it yourself here. The island’s at the top-right corner of the Second Life map, just west of Denmark.

You might also have noticed the ONE Manchester lot building their virtual versions of the Urbis and various other city landmarks in Second Life. I noticed it a few days ago and it’s mysteriously made its way into the Evening News. Funny, that. ;)

Thanks for the tip. I checked out the One Manchester island but it’s private at the moment. Will try again later.
