Rodeo Comes to Wyoming in Second Life

One may now ride a bull in Wyoming and try to beat my score.

This is a low level interactive object but a small start to a much more interactive island. It is interaction with objects that will become the hallmark of this learning sim, along with quality learning activities.

The rodeo is located at: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Wyoming%20Entrepreneur/35/220/25

Today I tried the language exchange site for the first time, called Instituto EspaƱol. I spoke with someone from Arizona and another person from New York. Very nice to practice my Spanish a little. We used audio of course, although using text would also have been a positive experience.

Language exchange is one of the most successful educational efforts to date in Second Life.


Also, the train is fully operational although I can't say the same for Old Faithful Geyser. The latter is proving to be a real challenge.

Finally, wild-life has come to Wyoming!
