This past Wednesday (October 24), CBS aired an episode of CSI: NY in which a killer uses Second Life to attract and hunt down her victims. The episode was a cliff-hanger, and viewers were invited to log on to a special CSI:NY-themed island in Second Life to continue the hunt for the murderer.

This is a long post focused on strategic uses of listening rather than specific techniques.

Jon notes, "Both substance-wise, and the idea of doing ultra-short "casual" screencasts like this as a training/demonstration technique."
