Second Life Extra Credit

The Second Life extra credit assignment turned out to essentially be a "how to" for Second Life. For the first hour and a half, the people who put together the seminar explained how to use second life, and how to create an account - it was awful. Luckily for me, I could use the internet for this part. The majority of the people there were 50 years old women, who would mutter under their breathe things like "well this just isn't working right." I was actually surprised to see the demographic, I was expecting people more my aged, and men; I think however, that the group of people that were there, were there as an activity for some other group. The final half an hour was spent listening to a lecture from a lady from a remote place, talking about the possibilities of Second Life...Such as giving a speech from a remote place. Somewhere in the middle of this, Roger exhibited our games to the class, and of course, our game wasn't working properly. A few people from the other groups were there in-game, and the person who was supposed to be there in-game for our group, Team Knight Rider, wasn't there. Roger gave me as an example of someone that could answer questions for our group however, so I stood by our building for the remainder of the time - no one asked any questions. Compared to the other two extra credit assignments, this one was pretty damn boring, but at least Roger knew this, because afterwards he apologized to Jenni, and myself; after I receive the extra point from this, apology accepted ;) I suppose if nothing else, I got to see the in-game voice chat working, and got to browse the internet while receiving extra credit.
