Nice couple of posts but they only touch a fraction of the issues that surround this topic. I was reading a blog post (I believe it was Fleep Tuque) who penned a pretty eloquent note on her ponderings about how much of her life was wrapped up in a d…

I tend to see most shared online spaces as "virtual worlds" too, whether they're synchronous or asynchronous, textual or 3D.

I wrote a couple posts on the topic: "When Avatars Leave: Supporting our Friends Through The Grieving Process" and "Death, Doubt and Double Lives". There was also a long thread on Plurk. I'll try to dig up that link too.

That url is http://oberononline.net/wordpress/ and the name is Die/|\Hard 3.0, explained in the About page where all the various blogs I have are listed.

I am actively looking for work as a Web Synergist, desiring a position where I can help a non-p… Continue
