Virtual World

Virtual life is like a second life that we imagined and created virtually. Now day people, especially boys, use the virtual world to play games. It could drive them to a real war where they could imagine that they are soldiers. The virtual world can be used to shows others a new project and how it will be, such as a new buildings, or urbanizations. Virtual world basically shows the others a new world, it drive anyone to a future.

The article “Social Influence and the Diffusion of User-Created Content” by Bakshy, Karrer, and Adamic states that “ In Second Life, you can search for interesting places to visit on your own, or a friend or business can give you a landmark – a bookmark that allows you to teleport directly to a location. If upon arriving, you would like your avatar to dance, wave, or make a certain sound, you need to retrieve that gesture from your inventory of assets.” The virtual world is like a second life where you can do whatever you want and imagine that you are living it. Also, you can see different places that maybe in real life we don’t have it. Anyone can construct your own land or construct your perfect life.

In the future everyone would be part of a virtual life. It also would be use for many corporations to show they new project to clients or the public, such as a new construction of buildings, malls or urbanizations. The second life would be use with frequently.
