Architects Move into Second Life
A lot of librarians are wondering why some librarians are so interested in Second Life, a virtual world. Many of the sessions at Internet Librarian dealt with Second Life and why librarians should at least familiarize themselves with it, if not actually figure out how to use it for their work. At tonight’s blog group, Quilian Riano is demoing some Web sources related to architecture and discussed how architects are moving into Second Life. Not only do some people who use Second Life want to use the services of professional designers, but some architects create buildings in Second Life to get ideas about what they might look like in real life and how people might use the space. Nifty, eh? Knowing architects can use Second Life reaffirms that other professions should move into it and figure out how to utilize it.
