Social Networks Are Important!
Every business's goal is to raise capital, create large profit margins, and also to make an impact on the current moment in time. From our experience in digital media we have found that one of the prominant ways of doing this is by establishing yourself into online social networks. Online social networks allow for users to keep in touch with what is happening in your business without directly visiting your blog, or contacting you to find out what's new. What we have found from our experience is that by integrating your organization with online social networks you have a cost effective way to market you and your company. By using these online social networks you have a stronger chance of pulling new clients, serving current clients with free communication, and even creating profits through the use of these online social networks. This trend in social connections is here to stay and is a very cost effective way to promote your organization. Some of the more popular Social networks are: Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, and YouTube. However, you can find an entire list of social network on the Wikipedia website by clicking here. Not only can you use social networks such as the ones stated above, but using a virtual world to create a social network is being adopted by companies each and every day. By using a virtual world you can build a community around what activities and subjects your organization focuses on. You will be amazed at the amount of people that are interested in learning more about your field, company, and future ambitions. There are many different virtual worlds out there, but only a few are climbing to the top of the hill when it comes to company integration. The list includes but is not limited to: Activeworlds , Second Life , Project Wonderland , There, Twinity , and many more. So get out there and socialize as you will be surprised to see who you will run into and how they will correlate with your business in the future. Did I mention your boss will love you as you are saving your organization money by creating free social marketing?

Single Building Second Life Development Finished
Another project added to the portfolio! We have finished a small project in Second Life for a single building on a the "Mainland." As reported before, the building has a large foyer area that connects two large rooms, one for presentations and one to be used as an office. Knowing all the possibilities of Second Life, Informa wanted a place to conduct small meetings within their company and with potential clients. Informa plans to use this building for exactly that, while also creating a virtual presence for the company. Click here to view the portfolio images!

2009 Miami Valley CTC Second Life Class

As we reported last week Miami Valley CTC has started a Second Life class that will run through the remaining school year. The class with be taught by Andrew in collaboration with Melissa Seifman from Miami Valley CTC. Students will learn programming, building, modeling, texturing, and terraforming. Towards the end of the class the students will be broken off into teams and asked to develop a project for themselves with only minor assistance from Andrew and Melissa (similar to the students at Sycamore High School). We hope to use this experience to help newcomers learn more about Second Life and enjoy their time in this wonderful virtual world.
