Week 10 – Gaming & Virtual Environments

Okay, so I downloaded the “trial” version of Mystery Solitare but it eventually bumped me off and let me know that the free trial is over. It wasn’t as “interesting” as I’d hope but as you are all well aware there are LOTS more to choose from. I’ve played a couple of card games and they are always fun.

I’m in 2nd Life, my screen name is Gayle Etzel. This is wild, and it’ll take some time to get the hang of it. I need to get off the island.  I met some people, and made a friend. I don’t think any of those I met were from the Library, and a couple didn’t speak english. It seems to take up quite a bit of time learning everything. Right now I don’t have a lot of time but if one had their own computer it would allow for more time to find these things out. There is much to learn but it’s lots of fun.

As for Libraries communicating thorugh Virtual Worlds, well, that is where they’ll probably find most of the Library Users. Those worlds are are their world(s). They are able to communicate with any of their friends from any place to anywhere their friends/colleagues are. How simple is that?!
