I Can't Wait to Sign up for Second Life!

Seriously. When Nicole was offering to cover SL in class, I was underwhelmed, thinking SL is so three years ago and very uninteresting. But I went along with it, in part because I knew I'd enjoy the other modification on offer, the Twitter section.

The readings in preparation for class have completely turned me around. The most impactful articles were both career related - I am so fixated! The other readings and interviews were very interesting and made me more interested in checking out SL, but the news that IBM and the UK government are using SL to recruit and process recruits intrigues me. It's another way to market myself to potential employers, and I'll take anything I can get!

Looking forward to class, and trying to keep myself from signing up before then. Would that be really bad if I did?
