in this issue:
Walking into the Map – David Rumsey shares his extensive map collection with residents of Second Life
TEEX Bridge Tour - the Texas Engineering Extension brings real life bridge maintenance training to Second Life
Cement Company LSmidth builds a virtual cement plant as an aid for real life recruitment
and how Implenia, Switzerland’s largest construction and building services provider, conceived and developed the virtual worlds communication interface (VWCI)— a tool for monitoring common building automation systems
This is an excellent communication example of how Second Life can be and is relevant to RL businesses, education and general learning / sharing improvements, and pleased that I (and isite) have been co-opted ‘on to the staff’ for future issues of the GridWorks, hopefully bringing an international, well UK view. Watch this space.
