Gadgets, Games and Gizmos: Virtual NBC

I wish you Happy Holidays and a great New Year.

Hope you and yours have a great holiday season no matter where in the world you are located or how you celebrate.

Also wishing you a happy holiday is the US television station, NBC.

NBC set up and conducted a “get together” in Second Life on December 20th. The event is now over, however, you can visit the virtual New York skating rink and Christmas tree in Second Life. I can tell you, I’ve been to New York in December to see the tree and the rink and it was a LOT more crowded than this online Second Life version.

This virtual Holiday area is yet another example of mainstream media getting into Second Life. All the more reason to consider Second Life for some of your training classes this year. It is a New Year’s resolution isn’t it?

The virtual square allows you to travel around a 2 or 3 block area, walk on the rink and get a really good feel for what the actual square and tree look like. If you are still in the holiday spirit, take a walk in Second Life and visit the Christmas Tree and look at the decorations.
