rad Zabibha bought a couple items.

You have furniture for sale – no art yet. I am waiting to see how you acquire art for sale.

Looks good -except the way you have set your objects for sale – when someone buys them, they will have to take them with them and you have no display left in your store.

Talk to me in class when you discover two of your items have disappeared. I will explain what you need to do.

This morning rad Zabibha and Cyb Tabla went touring your projects.

1] rad bought an Obama shirt from the Group doing the Clothing store at the Taste of India Mall. However – there was no shirt in it. She suggests the group actually place a shirt in the display object. It is possible to see that at least three of the group members are putting in effort at building and designing clothes for the store. I hope to see more visible effort on the part of other members in the group.

2] Cyb went to the swimup bar! She bought a martini. it looks good. One of the problems of course is space – for instance, going to the edge and trying to be on the dance floor pushes the avatar into the mall next door which kicks the avatar back to the bar….

Part of trying to do a good business on SL is to try to use the resources you have well – so I think the group needs to try and use the space well and not try to ask for more.

Also – I really hope each of the group members is being made to work equally hard on the project.

This week –

1] Continue group work and blogging on SL explorations

2] Read Chapter 7 and blog about that Chapter.

See you all in class.

Today – November 3rd 2008 – we will meet in Olscamp .

I will discuss the final group project paper details in class today and get updates of group work in addition to discussions of the book and next steps in blogging and reading.

For the remainder of this month and until December 5th – unless otherwise noted by email or on this blog –  we are meeting in the Music bldg computer lab.

Part of your blogging grade has been entered into the grades section blackboard course module. Your individual papers will all have been graded by Friday class time and I will have feedback and grades to you by email all through the weekend.
