Opportunities in Second Life

1. Explore point-of-use instruction in Second Life. Are some patrons more comfortable with accessing library resources as an avatar? If so, how can we reach them?

2. Observe and participate in the Second Life activities in the Virtual Home. Although not yet certain, the Virtual Home could have an additional presence in Second Life. If this becomes reality, there will be many opportunities to collaborate with the Virtual Home team.

I hope this collection of ideas is inspiring. I very much welcome your perspective on the feasibility of these ideas, as well as other ideas about how to utilize Web 2.0 tools. But before that discussion begins, please allow me to offer some closing remarks.
