Real Life and Second Life are Merging!
Loading…
This is a short video which demonstrates the merging of real life and Second Life in a fun dance party format!
Kevin Honeycutt was the host/DJ in both RL and SL for about 50 people in real life and about 50 people. The party was successful in getting those educators who may be reluctant to try out SL, to try on their wings in a low-stakes and energizing atmosphere! Yippee!

We are trying to think of some fund raisers and have come up with having a game night with Dance, Dance Revolution, Guitar Hero, etc... but I wanted to include a dance somehow - I think this might be it!!! Help me learn!!

- I think what made this so terrific was the dance was an opportunity to introduce Second Life (and it's wide-open possibilities) to an audience who may not be as open to these ideas initially. It was so fun to walk around the outside of the real dance floor and see the newbies gettin their groove on online!
