Today we were shown the site www.ilovebees.com, for those the don't know it was a promotional website set up for Halo 2 where the site first looked like a hobby site set up by someone talking about how much they liked bees. As the weeks went on the site started to change as if it had been hacked and as the weeks went on the site changed more and more till it looked like it had been completely hacked by some unknown group of people trying to post some secret information. In the end it was reviled that it was for Halo 2 and we talk about how this type of interactive story telling was "thinking outside of the box" in the way of getting a story across because the website had hundreds of thousands of people looking at it to see what would happen next.
After that we talking about a you tube girl named lonelygirl14, it was a story created by posting video diaries that people though was real until later on when people started to investigate about the girl that was posting on the videos.

Half way through the class we got to meet our 2nd life teacher who is going to be helping us with using 2nd life to take the in game footage that we need for out movies that we are going to be making.

So set up my account and made my character and flew around a bit and checked out some islands to see what the game is like and get a feel for it.

I do have images to post of my adventures but i left them on the computers at the university so i will post them at a later date .
