I decided to launch the videocast portion of smarterasses.org, my embryonic political communications 2.0 website, before the website itself was ready for full deployment. I blame Benson, who’s gone ahead and created a Second Life office for YDG complete with free t-shirts and got me sucked into this virtual reality crap in the first place.
I need to get the taxonomy module up and running before I post this as a vidcast blog entry at smarterasses, so in the meantime, here:
The Young Democrats of Georgia lead the way as they often do in Web 2.0 communications, establishing a functional office in Second Life within a couple weeks of creating a couple of officer avatars in the virtual world. YDG Secretary Christopher Benson-Manica, a.k.a. Ataru Atlanta in SL, started with a sign on a small plot of land and turned it into a two storey building with free t-shirts for branding and a meeting space for group members in the span of a week. The SAVC takes a quick tour of the YDG space and the surrounding environment.

This is so l337, you are still officially the SMO man. Heck, I still can’t figure out why my avatar still has a beard even though the damn hair sliders are all the way at the bottom, never mind work the camera right. ;-P
