Global Collaborative Storytelling Game

I shot this video during a work session in Second Life this morning with Joshua Fouts and Ian Hughes. Embedded media has completely changed the way we work in Second Life.

Dancing Ink Productions is collaborating with the British Council on a global storytelling game. We had a wildly explosive meeting in London last week and now we're continuing the collaboration virtually, via a mix of Google docs, Skype, Second Life and Twitter.

It isn't just that you can show media by embedding it in a prim (which is the basic building block of construction in Second Life). It's that you can actually collaborate on the media right there in real time.

This is a groundbreaking development in Second Life, and yet another reason why the platform is fantastic for entrepreneurs working with globally dispersed teams.
