Virtual Bailey

Saturday, October 28, 2006

Last night I visited the Yahoo Time Capsule Sim. This is the in world collection box for Yahoo's self described "electronic anthropology project". They are gathering digital content - images, text, audio, video - for a period of 30 days at which time it will be turned over to the Smithsonian for archival purposes.



Destroytv was there filming. They launched a few weeks ago and broadcast images from Second Life to their website. Using their website you can view the stream of images coming out of Second Life, change the position of the avatar that is filming, and even enter a message that is spoken in world by the Destroy TV avatar. They also archive all of their images on Flickr which means that I now show up in their Flickr tag cloud.



The Yahoo Time Capsule Sim will be open until November 6th - go submit something.
