The United States government is getting involved in Second Life. In class, we visited and talked about NOAA's presence in the virtual world called Meteora. Meteora is one of the best islands I have seen so far in Second Life. Meteora is very interactive and informative at the same time. The tsunami simulation was awesome, although my avatar might beg to differ.
However, we did not talk about Health Info Island which is controlled by the National Library of Medicine. I found this island also to be very informative. For example, the island had a path of support with signs that had information on different diseases and cures.
However, during my stay at Health Info Island, one sign in particular caught my attention.
Homework Assignment 3, anyone?
