Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

JULY 5, 2007

via the Mind Blizzard Blog I learned of a new Dutch NGO island, called "Goede Doelen eiland" ( good causes island ). Both organisations are looking for new ways of fundraising and are looking into the possibilities in Virtual Worlds. Rik Riel is has also written about this and has described it as "avatar engagement."

Look for mobile providers to combine these ideas to enable a virtual meeting environment with video, audio, whiteboard, and presentations from multiple attendees. Through their use of "Second Life," TechSoup has been at the forefront of virtual meeting and collaboration environments for several years.

So, I've been reflecting about effective facilitation of virtual meetings in Second Life Right now the primary method of group interaction is via unmoderated chat interface. But there is also a trust issue too -- particularly if you don't know all the avatars in real life. There I go again, wanting a virtual flipchart.

danah boyd has a post called " On Being Virtual " (be sure to read the comments) As Kevin Gamble on the SLED list notes, what she seems to be saying is that if you look at the rise of social tech amongst young people, it's not about divorcing the physical social structures to live virtually. Come on, get real already.

In January, I interviewed Sibley about the potential use of virtual worlds and Second Life by museums, but in the four months since then, the virtual world platform--and the hype around it--has exploded. It seems that Second Life is both the closest and farthest thing from many museum professionals' minds.

why does someone spend so much time in a game world customising their avatar???? Susie's Blog, winning hearts and minds over to FOSS, points to an interesting article about how to convince management to approve free software. There's a few recent posts on Mass Digging As Virtual Activism well worth a read.
