Virtual World Search

September 19, 2008

I had a look at the library blog search engine Libworm this morning and did a search for “virtual worlds“. Guess whose blog entry came up at the top of the results?

The news this morning reported that the Australian Police Force is planning to conduct recruitment interviews in Second Life which may make our management think twice about dismissing it as “just a game”. I have read that the British Police ran a similar experiment recently and, although they didn’t actually employ any of the people they interviewed in the virtual world, it certainly raised the level of awareness of their recruitment drive.
