Sun is building a virtual world for its employees that will recreate the real-life interactions of an office, giving workers the ability to move easily from one conversation to another in a collaborative online environment. In a real office, a Sun employee might engage in technical discussion with a few fellow workers, then walk over to a water cooler or snack area and start a new conversation. Sun is recreating that same type of environment on the Web with MPK20, a virtual world similar to Second Life that uses immersive audio to allow multiple conversations at once. “We believe for collaboration, audio is a really essential component,” Nicole Yankelovich, principal investigator for Sun’s collaborative environment project, said Tuesday at the Sun Labs Innovation Update in Burlington, Mass.

My first Second Life training This is a very brief post, just to share a great experience I had this evening following a training course at the Academy of Second Learning, at Eson (47/157/351). We created a sphere with some very nice eyes on it, and the sphere really bounced! Things I noticed: how much functionality is actually hidden in the SL interface how nice and easy it is to follow such a hands-on-course you can follow each others questions to the teacher via the chat history and even look back.
