SL= good PR for Non-profits

A greatly informative video on how Second Life is being used by non-profit organizations as a means to make a real-world difference through virtual world work. As it seems donations in the game can be transferred into real money in your first life. It may simply be good public relations work but hey it is interesting none the less.

“Help us change the world, one avatar at a time.”


The second video is actual reporting on this up and coming means for non-profit organization to get their names out as well as the disinterest in SL for investment money by most companies due to the fact that they do not understand it and are not able to chart out money making strategies within the game. It is far less Public Relations based and is actually what one might consider news. If you still have no idea what Second Life is at this point or how it works, you may want to check out this second video. John Stewart of the Daily Show makes an appearance as a dolphin avatar.
