At the first Floor of the Main Building (and at the Wharf) you can find a slide show presentation about Within Ten Years.
The slide show has been scripted in a way to show pictures without rez-delay. Soon the script will be available for educators and innovators.
A first version of the EduDeck is available to test at the Wharf. The EduDeck is a kind of HoloDeck for educational purposes. At the moment it contains three Scenes (Future Scenarios, Africa and a Court) and three Tools (Innovation Dialog, PictureBoard and Multi user Poembook). Click the controller and select your scene. And... dont forget to select the menu item "CLEAR" when you have finished your test.
Ever wanted to play a role in an African Scene? The picture below gives an example of another possible scene of the Within Ten Years EduDeck.
For the Edu-deck, the education "holodeck", a real court will be designed and build. You can find a sneak preview in the picture below.
At the third floor of the Main Building an ATM of DutchX has been placed. With this money machine (and the website of DutchX), you can buy Linden dollars.
Seven more social bookmarking themes has been added to the Library at the Wharf. A few will follow soon, as well as an information board. Now you can add your favorite or most important urls about twitter-accounts, blogs, lifestreams, video clips, pictures, edutools, 21st century and innovation sites. You can also promote an item in a list to a higher ranking.
Today Terrence Linden (one of the education employees of Linden Lab) visited Within Ten Years. Half Short, the designer of our education & innovation island gave him a guided tour. He was impressed about all the work that has been done, and, about our creativity and innovative tools and methods.
Some applications at Within Ten Years automatically send a Tweet at the WTY Twitter account when something has been changed.
The Racks at the library, the Profession of the Future and the Interactive Roadmap tweet when someone has added an entry.
The Library Rack about Twitter at the Wharf is out of the beta stage yet. Soon there will be new Racks added, like Blogs, Lifestreams, Videoclips, Edutools and so on. When you have any ideas or wishes for Rack-themes, please let us know.
