Oronoque Westland, on her first SL presentation, took us on a tour of Virtual Harlem in Second Life. We saw the bookstore first and the classroom above it. The bookstore had displays of books on Harlem and they were directly linked to Amazon for purchase. In the classroom we could see a schedule and assignments and Oronoque gave us a brief history of the project beginning before SL days. The second stop was a brownstone, Caribbean House. There were four floors with an awesome authenticity to them. Inside were steel drums, piano, and a sitar. Then we went to the Lafayette Theater. Chat kind of broke down at this point. Like the rest of the tour the Lafayette Theater represented a real place in NYC. There were more stops after this but my connection was so laggy I left. Please Linden Labs, fix this latest version of the viewer!
