- A Virtual Science Environment in Second Life
Mary Anne Clark describes the organization and uses of Genome Island, a virtual laboratory complex constructed in Second Life.

I’m not against virtual environments – it’s SL I have a problem with. There are many potential applications, the ones that particularly attract me being travel replacement and carbon footprint reduction.

- Trademarks and the SLeducation Wiki
As some readers probably already know, I received a request from Linden Lab on Wednesday in relation to the Second Life in Education Wiki requesting ‘not to use our trademark “Second Life” in your name or website name and not to use “SLeducation” in text or in your domain name…’ and to ‘..make the changes to your website name and domain name as soon as possible and let us know when you expect to have this done…’.
