Second Life's Experience

It's week 9
I spent my time on Second Life this few days. Beside the 5 locations I posted earlier in this blog, I also visited to some other location such as a Japanese cultural town to explore and know more about Second Life, I felt that Second Life contained many locations design according to some many places in real world.

I was thinking whether we can build our own place in Second Life or not, but I realized that we need to pay in order to do this. It was a quite interesting virtual application just the loading speed was extremely slow which might take up to half an hour to load certain objects. For me, I am fancy with all the beautiful landscaping location in Second Life, such as Straylight, a really beautiful nature environment. Overall, Second Life is a very good 3d virtual application for me, although I just spent a month using it. The only obstacle is we need good connection in order to play it smoothly, otherwise I can't even move my character in second Life. I might also use second life as my benchmark for my project in the other class. After go through the pages of "The Architecture", I feel much more comfortable on the interface and control navigation in second Life, which helped me on my second Life exploration.

After second life, I still have the communication analysis project, and we wanted to do our analysis at the airport, but we can't start before we get the permission letter. Since airport is a huge place so we might need to spend at least half day at the airport and probably we will start do our observation at the airport as soon as we get the permission letter.
