...and yes you 7ft tall, squirrel headed amazonian beauty - that means you Dave!
I’m currently talking with a Second Life developer about ways to use what is such a rich experiential environment in establishing more beneficial and engaging recruitment and assessment environments than the quick on the uptake, headline grabbing but generally pretty flat executions our industry has produced to date.
Well this lady, and yes she really is a proper real world lady too, is running some research about how people find their initial orientation - the experience you have on first entering the site that shows you the basics of what you can do and how to do it. In her words:
Second Life is a wonderful environment but it is complex and it is always a difficult call how much you try and tell someone and at which point. I suspect that quite a few people drop out of the Second Life experience because they don’t quite understand how to use it. I’d like to think that we could develop an induction programme that gives people a good start (without giving them a headache) and then encourages them to stay and take part in SL.
So if you have ever dabbled - or indeed are still dabbling - in Second Life then would you be so kind as to spend a few moments and complete this questionnaire.
The survey will run for a while - but if she gets anything back that might be of interest then I’ll be sure to pass it on.
thank you...Guess Whybrow
