Samsung have introduced a whole range of 3D gear including television, DVD player and even the funky 3D glasses!

First you will need the 3D television. On letsbuyit.co.uk we have the Samsung 3D ready LED TV, this takes home cinema to a whole new level!

“A virtual representation of a person or a person’s interactions with others in a virtual environment, conveying a sense of someone’s presence (known as telepresence) by providing the location (position and orientation) and identity; examples include the graphical human figure model, the talking head, and the real-time reproduction of a three-dimesional human image”.

That is the exact definition of an avatar, the webs newest outlet for creating virtual beings!  Many of today’s most popular websites offer users the chance to create their own avatars from a pre-defined model.  From the basic model, users can change the avatar’s clothing, hair, or eyes.  The avatars can then be used throughout that website to represent the user.  Avatars can also be integrated into virtual communities such as Zwinky and Zwinktopia!

To Virtual World integration:

A lot of websites offering avatar creation have now made it possible for you to use your own customized avatars on personal homepages and eBay!

What I couldn’t find during my search was a site offering to create an avatar from my own picture… Any ideas?

As promised, I continued my trip around Second Life for the past few days. I think I’m really getting addicted now – have bought a few stuffs, talked with people, flew and even lost my hairs!
Meanwhile, I have visited a lof of ‘companies islands’, like Adidas, IBM or Toyota. I’m very impressed by the huge inerest comanies are now having in owning their own islands in SecondLife’s virtual world. Launching of a new product (last Toyota, last Dior jewel collection, etc), creating a corporate island (IBM, Adidas, etc) or even trying to win a presidential election (candidates of lately french presidential election for example), advertising on Second Life seems to be the latest trend!

Dior’s island, Belladone, looks like a jewel iself!

For a small rent to the owners of Second Life, those brands can reach millions of people to make buzz around their products and islands.
Is it really efficient and are prices gonna raise for professional users? Lt’s see in the next few months..

Ok, I may be a little bit late, but I’m finally part of it!
Result: after a 20 minutes first try.. I don’t understand a lot of things! Ok, I had a lot of fun creation my character, but I must confess that once in the middle of nowhere next to a castle with some other people, I had no idea what I could possibly do!!
How do you manage your first steps into this world if you don’t have a few hours to reade the user guide, explanations or other comments??

Come on, I’ll have a new try next week-end!
