Literature review

My Literature review is now complete, including an overview of four major factors I believe will heavily influence information seeking behaviors within Second Life:

• Sociability: SL is social, it’s a virtual world where people love to connect
• Active learning: experience is how people figure out new things in SL
• User contributed content: SL residents are the architects of their self-created digital landscape
• Challenges to authority: In a land where content can be created by everyone, the notion of a single source of authority may not be well received
