Virtual Worlds: Libraries, Education, Museums

At the weekend I attended the Virtual Worlds: Libraries, Education, Museums conference in Second Life (SL: the virtual world). I have blogged the conference on my Sheila Yoshikawa blog (that's my SL name) at:

One thing which I started thinking about was why I am more likely to blog a Second Life (SL) event than a Real Life one. I think the answer is that:

1) in SL I can start the blogging while the conference is on: taking notes on the computer whilst I'm at the conference. The conferences I attend in Real Life don't tend to have facilities for delegates to be connected whilst in the audience; also my laptop has a short battery life so would give out after about one session.

2) Once the conference is over, I'm there at the computer, ready to write up notes on the spot.
