Recording Second Life's built in voice at events is not straight forward. This video tutorial from Metaversed.com will walk you through the process however, allowing you to record meetings, events and conversations in Second Life. If you have done the same thing differently, or better, i'd love to hear from you! So please comment.

I wanted to interact with other avatars, so I found a coffeehouse within the GoogleLively room directory and decided to pay a visit. Right away I received hugs and started a short chat with a gentleman who later picked fights with other males. I gave them a shrug and left, looking for the nearest gunstore. Wait! No guns or airplanes! D'oh!

This it the Virtual Worlds Activeworlds running on my Treo 750. I am showing both the phone and the PC, which is acting as a virtualized sever. All movement and chatting in world is happening from the phone. I really think it is cool that I can stream a video in world and see it on the phone. Please note, that this Proof of concept, does not support sound or control beyond chatting, and zoom. I had to currently touch the screen in world via my PC to enable the video stream.
