Second Life 
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_life

.

Second Life is an online virtual world developed by Linden Lab which was 
launched on June 23, 2003. A number of free client programs called 
Viewers[1][2] enable Second Life users, called Residents, to interact with 
each other through avatars. Residents can explore the world (known as the 
grid), meet other residents, socialize, participate in individual and 
group activities, and create and trade virtual property and services with 
one another. Second Life is intended for people aged 13 and over,[3] and 
as of 2011 has more than 20 million registered user accounts.

.

Built into the software is a three-dimensional modeling tool based around 
simple geometric shapes that allows residents to build virtual objects. 
There is also a procedural scripting language, Linden Scripting Language, 
which can be used to add interactivity to objects. More complex 
three-dimensional sculpted prims (colloquially known as sculpties), 
textures for clothing or other objects, and animations and gestures can be 
created using external software. The Second Life Terms of Service provide 
that users retain copyright for any content they create, and the server 
and client provide simple digital rights management functions.[3]

Virtual learning environment
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_learning_environment

.

A virtual learning environment (VLE) is a system designed to support 
teaching and learning in an educational setting, as distinct from a 
Managed Learning Environment (MLE), where the focus is on 
management.
