Yikes I just showed that Web 2.0 at the last staff meeting!
It's okay - Web 2.0 is good for at least a year (ehh, maybe only 6 months....;-)...).
I am not sure what the use would be, but thanks for keeping us up to date. How different is it from video conferencing?
Video conferencing is live. Second Life is more where you create your own virtual presence and go into environments where you can interact. So, you could go into University of Michigan's 3D lab and create virtual experiments. Data is kept on your virtual person (avator), where you've been, what you like, classes you've taken, etc.. It's pretty wild actually. But, keep an ear open for it coming in a big way to education.
