Educators, Musicians and the Well Connected – Reach Your Audiences in Second Life
May 24, 2013It’s all about connections, this metaverse, and social media tools abound to enable them on the Web. We created the =I= NetConnect to let your friends and colleagues connect to you from within virtual worlds. The possibilities are endless.
Are you a musician in Second Life, working to be discovered? An =I= Netconnect next to a tip jar gives your audiences the ability to connect to you across the metaverse. Your NetConnect may have buttons for your SoundCloud or Vimeo sites, for example, and there’s room for up to 12 buttons. The screen (shown with the =IcaruS= logo) can be customised to show your own logo.
Are you an educator or researcher, using Second Life as a teaching and study medium? You may be a frequent lecturer or presenter in different venues, which are ideal places to find new people to connect to you – newfound colleagues, research collaborators, students and others. With the NetConnect, your audiences can link to you through your LinkedIn, SlideShare or Tumblr accounts. It even serves as a presentation aid for you!
Even when you simply want to let other people connect to you beyond SL – you can wear the =I= NetConnect Badge, which is a miniature, wearable version for your avatar. It’s especially good in those places where you cannot rez the full size NetConnect.
You can configure custom buttons for any of your networks, but the =I= NetConnect comes with a selection of presets:
| E-mail Flickr KoinUp |
Last.fm MySpace Quicktime |
RSS Second Friends Subscribomatic |
Vimeo Your Website SL Marketplace YouTube |
Give your fans and followers or just the curious a great way to see your social links.
