Trailfire Frequently Asked Questions - 0 views

  • How do I add a mark to a trail? Create a new mark and give it the name of an existing trail, and it will automatically be added to the end of the trail.
  • How do I create a trail? Create two marks with the same trail name, and they'll automatically be linked together.
  • Who can see my trails? When you first get install the browser extension trails you create will be visible to all users.
  • ...9 more annotations...
  • and you can add them to groups or give them the ability to edit some of your trails.
  • To get the URL for a trail
  • You can also find trail and mark URLs on the Trail Summary page
  • trail-or-mark-URL
  • URL-of-the-trackback-blog
  • MySpace just use the trail or mark URL as the link value
  • "My Stuff" page
  • source mode of the WYSIWYG editor
  • Why use
  •  
    Let's test, how Diigo and TrailFire can work together. This is a test, wether a highligted sticky note with marks from Trailfire shows the mark, i.e. the Trailfire annotation too. Before that, I tested the converse.


  •  
    The correct link is probably this one.
  •  
    This phrase is ambivalent to me. Are there really mark URLs, in addition to trail URLs?

Finding health information, community online - 0 views

  • On finding support groups in Second Life: The SLHealthy wiki (slhealthy.wetpaint.com) is probably your best and most comprehensive resource for Second Life health support groups, organizations and locations.
  • On "official" Second Life health support groups like those operated by the American Cancer Society versus groups begun by individuals who have suffered from a particular ailment: We have not reviewed the information provided by groups, though in several instances, we've decided not to list information about a group because it's clearly unethical. One example is a pro-ana (or pro-anorexia) group, and another was a for-profit "organization."
  • If you're thinking about joining a group, I suggest you use the same radar you might in the real world: Do you feel comfortable? You should feel perfectly OK about asking questions you have.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • I sure understand professionals' concerns about the validity of information provided in peer health support groups, but it's important to understand that they meet anyway, with or without our support and listing. It's caveat emptor, as it is everywhere else - on the Web, in the media, it's all about questioning and evaluating health information. It may be surprising, but from my own observations of people in health support groups, the discussion does get round to whether information is valid or not, surprisingly often. I think we all are coming to realize that the goal has to be empowerment, so that the individual can be a true partner in his or her health care - informed, skeptical, involved, well-supported within the health care and personal communities.
  • With regard to health information from groups, I'd recommend you use what you learn as you might use information from Wikipedia: a great resource with terrific anecdotes that may help you understand more about a health condition, but not necessarily authoritative. And it might not necessarily apply to you, with your own unique health history, medications, and more. It can be a wonderful starting point and provide you with questions you can explore on your own, discuss with health care professionals and check out with a medical librarian. Someone should come up with a Latin corollary for caveat emptor that means "always ask, always learn"!

    Social annotations and bookmarking for the SLED archive and beyond.

    (Tags:Socialannotation Socialbookmarking SL Secondlife Education SLED)

    Dear SLEDizens, dear Diigos:

    the amount of information in the highly appreciated SLED mailing list archive is formidable.

    So social bookmarking (and hyperlinkable, rich text formatted) annotations might be helpful as additional tools to keep the overview by social biidirectional interlinking the SLED archive within itself and the rest of the Web.

    This way we can easily "weave the web" (and our memory :-) by setting links from
    older contributions to newer ones (and of course vice-versa).an abitrary externally annotated <<blog/ forum/ wikipage/ static webpage>> to an archive-posting (and vice versa) an annotation via SLURL-links to special SL locations (and v.v.)
    I opened a tag-supported group forum Second Life Social Annotations  where technical questions concerning this social bookmarking/annotation tool, applied to SL / SLED, can be addressed by SLED / Diigo peers and beyond.

Look Lively! - Massively - 0 views

  • The Massively crew has spent a little more time hammering away at Google's new virtual artifice, Lively. By now, you've probably seen all sorts of news reports calling it a rival and competitor to Linden Lab's virtual world, Second Life. Technically, that's what we call bollocks
  • Describing Lively as a rival to Second Life is like calling a conference center a rival to a library. They're just not servicing the same needs, and the comparison is fundamentally nonsensical. Lively is tightly focused, and fails to intrude on the bulk of virtual worlds space.
  • Movement is accomplished by double-clicking on a spot to teleport your avatar there, or clicking and dragging the avatar with the left mouse button to walk your avatar. Don't try to drag your avatar past the border of the camera view without repositioning your camera first, or you will get unsettling jumps and find your avatar in strange places.

  • Lively keeps things simple and does those simple things well. The television in our sample room is playing the trailer for Dr Horrible's Sing-Along Blog. A few clicks is all that is required to link a YouTube video to a television object -- but as far as we know, no other embedded video formats are supported.
  • All content that is currently in Lively is made by Google-approved developers, and is presently free -- though it looks very much like the majority of content in Lively will be pay-for before long.
  • If you want to interact with an object (sitting down, for example), single left click on the object. If you want to play an animation, single left click on your avatar, and select an item from the animations tab (different lists of animations are available depending on whether you are sitting or standing). And ... that's actually about it. Lively is simple, and straightforward, and focuses on doing one thing well: The furnishable 3D chatroom. It can be embedded on a webpage and your avatar can be in multiple rooms at once via different browser windows or tabs. If you've got a group of up to 20 people (who all have Google accounts and are running Windows), and want to share a Youtube video or sit around and shoot the breeze in a lightweight space, and having your own content isn't for you, then Lively is for you.
  • But a rival to Second Life? No more so than corn syrup is a rival for sea salt.

eslteacherlink.co.kr - About us - 0 views

  • n January 2007, Eslteacherlink.com constructed English Village,&nbsp; an immersive 3D simulation for language learners and teachers across the globe!&nbsp; At English Village teachers meet students in REAL TIME, using an avatar, Virtual white boards, VOICE, 3D objects, and role playable holodecks to provide 21st century learning.
  • Futuristic, yet Practical Instead of keeping our island flat, and having the majority of our buildings&nbsp; on the ground level, we have situated 13 glass classrooms along a 120 meter high, horse-shoe shaped mountain ridge. Below the steep mountain ridges, lies a welcoming sandy beach that reaches out into a c resent moon shaped bay area. This large open space is used frequently by our teachers for special learning activities, such as market place and carnival role play scenarios.
  • The Onion Our meeting area is in the shape of an Onion, and is constructed of 100% virtual pink stained glass.&nbsp; We actually never planned to use a giant onion as our central meeting area... but it actually does a great job of representing&nbsp; the organic nature of our island ~ We build. We make mistakes. We learn.... and sometimes we cry!&nbsp; So.. an onion - is perfect. Everyone begins in the onion. When an avatar teleports to our island for the first time, thats where they land - smack dab in the center beautiful pink wonder.&nbsp; Around the edges of the onion are several multi colored hamster tubes sprouting out - connecting to each holodeck classroom. Inside the hamster tubes are convenient People Movers - you know, the ones you see at the airport.&nbsp; Here, avatars just click on the red loading ball, and they are instantly moved along the pathway 100 meters to their destination.&nbsp; This saves virtual transport time.

  • i3D Tools at English Village Holoteaching™ Virtual holodecks enable teachers to "Holo-teach™." Holoteaching™ is a term we use to describe teaching using a holodeck. Plain and simple. We'd love to do this in the real world, but since real world technology is not yet available we are doing it in SL. Holoteaching™ provides a number of advantages for our teachers. Namely - context.&nbsp; If you've ever taught a language class to a group of students, you will understand the importance of context.&nbsp;&nbsp; For example, if a student was, say, going to Italy for a vacation, and wanted to study how to order some food - they could easily pick up a book on Italian language and memorize the necessary phases.&nbsp; If however, they were actually able to do a trial run - and actually sit down IN an Italian restaurant BEFORE they went on vacation, the likelihood of a good meal would most definitely increase. This is EXACTLY what holoteaching provides - an avenue for teachers to immerse students into rich role play scenarios where the walls, floors, and ceilings are textured to match what they are learning! Talk about fun!
  • Holo-teaching also allows transforms our classrooms into versatile meeting spaces.&nbsp; If a teacher needs to provide office hours, or meet with the president, or a college across the globe, they can easily transform their classroom into the appropriate space.&nbsp; Need a meeting room? No problem, click on meeting rooms, and choose from our selection. You can't find a meeting room you like? No problem, build it yourself, and our engineers will program it into the holodeck for you!&nbsp; Need a library to do research on educational technology? Load our research lab, and have the walls filled with links to real world research portals on the web!&nbsp; The options are endless!
  • Interactive White boards English Village also makes use of several interactive white boards in Second Life. This allows our teachers to import Real World content from their PowerPoint presentations.&nbsp; Once loaded, teachers can flip through each slide easily like they would in a normal class setting.&nbsp; During conferences, our teachers also have the option to allow their audience, or guests to import and share their own PowerPoint slides during the meeting.
