Hey, everyone -
For those who read this blog late or early in the morning, here is an abstract of Group 2's revised project. We've made a lot of progress on it this week. You can find a much longer (though still incomplete) version of our proposal on a wiki page in our Google Group.
Here's an abstract:
Our project uses technical improvements in the way content is retrieved, stored and presented in SL to explore (and potentially improve) how libraries are being translated into Second Life. The technical elements of our project will (we think) improve the experience of virtual books as well, allowing for dynamic information exchanges between an outside server and the interface in SL. (The content improvements we envision could apply not only to libraries, but also to bookstores (ie Amazon as a store) and, further, to the multiple uses of structured data combinations we see in Web 2.0 applications now.) To test out our ideas and get feedback from SL users, we will build a library building in Second Life based on existing RL library structures as a place to explore the interface and experience of our improved content.
