I haven't actually started to explore the Second Life game, but when I was scanning the CNN.com headlines this morning, I saw an article entitled "Autism in Second Life". I had seen this headline before, paying little attention to it, thinking it was a sitcom or something. Today, I read the article and it was interesting that the "autism" world is creating a presence in the virtual world, just like Library 2.0 is experimenting with. "Naughty Auties" is the virtual resource center for those with autism on Second Life. Here is the link to the article, if you are interested in reading it. My nephew has autism, and I am going to let his mom know about this feature on Second Life.Thursday, April 3, 2008
