Second Life Gets Virtual Pilots
Posted: Friday, January 26, 2007 - 14:54
If you are not familiar with Second Life, you soon will be. Second Life is a growing online "Virtual World." Much like the life simulation "The Sims," Second Life is a journey of "life" but on the internet. Flight1 has now entered that world.
Flight1 writes, "Flight1 has bought a plot of virtual land and built the “Flight1 Pilots' Club”, to allow enthusiasts to meet in the Members Bar for a virtual beer, watch Flight Sim videos and slide shows, listen to the Flight Simulation based IFC Global Network radio. Or sit back, meet other aviation enthusiasts and chat about Flight Simulation or any other topic they choose."
"In addition to the bar, the club has a large display area showing a range of Flight 1 DVD packaging in 3D, so that members and visitors can walk around and read the front and back of the boxes, click them to visit the Flight1 web pages for the products, or receive a notecard of links to independent reviews of the particular product by leading web sites. Events are also planned to give members a chance to meet and chat with key people in the Flight Simulation Community.
Membership of the club and ‘Second Life’ are both free."
Visit the Flight1 Second Life Area to go directly to the club if you are already a "Second Life resident", or if not, be automatically re-directed to the Second Life web site to register, create your 3D avatar and take a short tutorial which will teach you how to get around in-world.
