I am currently exploring Second Life (https://secondlife.com/), to see what option there is in there. It is a virtual world where you can create your own fantasy world and tour through others fantasies. I only had been there less than a week and I had already had changed her appearance 4 or times already. You can change detail of the avatar; the face, eyes, lips, hair, body shape, etc. So everybody avatar is unique once you had in there for a while. Some of the universities seem to have virtual campus in the maps with libraries from and classes from San Jose State, Stanford and Capella Universities. Here is the complete list; http://search.secondlife.com/?query_term=university&collection_chosen=all&isLeftColOpen=true&sort=. This is not a new virtual world. It had been around for a while. Some area is like it had been abandon if it was well developed. This is like Black Sun when it is virtual word when it was introduced in 1996, which is a VRML (virtual world mark up language) browser. The only things I find irritating are that it take time to regenerate because of the details on the surrounding area and the avatars. Some of the avatar has been around since 2006 and still use it as a test ground for modeling or expose of their artwork.
This page started as collection of RSS Feeds, Interest links and link to my portfolios and also voicing my changes. It had been meant to easy access to information from interesting magazines and resource. Since I am interested in Technologies, Science, Online Sites and some current news on products and fads that is what is what it becomes. Some of the feeds are just section of the magazines. I have RSS feed from Wired, Inc., CNN, Science Daily, Psych Central, Verge, NOVA | PBS, etc.
