Corporate Presence in SL

One of my primary interests in SL is the viability of using it for marketing purposes of RL companies. In October, I attended the Grace Hopper Women in Computing Conference. In a session titled Women Empowering the Next Generation of the Web, when one one panelist was asked what the future of the web was, she responded that it would more than likely be 3-D web. If there is truth to this, we need to investigate the effectiveness of marketing strategies in platforms such as SL to ensure a smooth transition into new web trends and technologies.

I ran across this article highlighting the Top 8 Corporate Sites in Second Life. Aside from the sites listed, I would also recommend The Weather Channel SL area. You can mountain bike and experience a hurricane simulator!
