One of the best essays written about the Second Life experience and immersion was written by a Second Life Avatar named Rheta Shan. The title is ‘ The World Philip Made’.
Tragically, New World Notes is reporting that the woman behind the avatar was killed in a traffic accident, which makes reading her essay again in virtual space, a more thought provoking act than ever. Especially as one of the comments on the NWN entry claims no such accident occurred.
