VNUNet - Virtual Answers to Real-Life Ills
Overview Organisations are starting to explore the benefits of using virtual worlds not just to share information, hold meetings and allow employees to learn new skills, but to provide an interactive multimedia online environment to reach out to customers. Probably the best known virtual world is Second Life, a site in which there were 12.6 million 'Residents' as of July 2008, a growth of 900 per cent over the previous year. Large corporations that have already set up a presence in Second Life include IBM, which is using the virtual world to collaborate with clients and partners, offering a place where they can meet with IBM representatives, learn about products and services, and access technical support information.
