TED Conference

TED Conference in Second Life

I attended a presentation today in Second Life - Architecture for Humanity Project - and this is an example of a house designed for areas such as Biloxi - after the Katrina disaster; houses are elevated for potential flooding.

There was a really good turnout for the presentation today - showing that second life is NOT just about sex, p-o-r-n and picking up! I've had a few people from the media contact me about doing interviews about the deviant behaviour in SL. This really reminds me of the old internet days, where all everyone would talk about was p-o-r-n and other net-perils. please! Can we get beyond the virtual world hype of debauchery and look at the possibilities of VR? Education & Learning? Collaboration? Communities? The list is endless...
