Avatars sitting in a row
IT Now is the British Computer Society magazine for IT professionals. The September issue of IT Now focuses on serious uses of Computer Games and Virtual Reality. It is well worth reading if you can get hold of a copy.
John Ozimek has an article "Virtual tasks become a reality" in which he explains how certain business tasks can be very usefully undertaken in environments such as Second Life. What I found distracting was there was a half page picture accompanying this article of a dozen avatars sitting in rows in what appears to be a lecture theatre. It appears that this is an image of a good use of Second Life, when for most people having your avatar sit in Second Life watch a presentation does not add anything, an illustration of avatars co-operating would have served the article better.
