CNN in Second Life
Found this link from MediaWeek via PJ Net:
As news organizations slash budgets and scale back bureaus, CNN is expanding—except not in real life.Â
In the week of Nov. 5, the news giant is set to open a news-gathering outpost in Second Life. And unlike news service Reuters, which embedded a real reporter in the online virtual world last year, CNN will rely on Second Life “residents†to do all the legwork.
And the network will act as a sort of journalism school, offering guidance to avatar citizen journalists via weekly “news meetings†directed by CNN.com staffers.Â
This will be interesting to follow….

Chris,
No, I am not in SL - just not time to give to that now. I have been following your ventures though. Maybe you can show me around a bit later.I am buried in the research and I am learning so much plowing through all of it. I hope to blog about some of this soon.
Meanwhile travel over to the student blogs at my previous school at http://jhh.blogs.com/webwriters/
The classroom teacher is blogging with 3 classes. She is the classroom teacher I worked with last year on the blogging project. They are making some creative use of your pictures - I’ve added more of your pictures to their pile of resources. Right now they are having fun playing with language and experimenting. Thanks for sharing the pictures!!
