Virtual camera now available from within Second Life

Hello.

We have added the ability for lecturers using the School's Second Life Island to broadcast events taking place in second life outside to the rest of the world via the following web page:

http://sites.google.com/site/secondlifeuwnshss/view-our-in-world-camera

When the camera is not broadcasting we will be looping videos from our YouTube channel.

A ticker at the bottom of the screen also broadcasts the latest news from the school.

If you would like a demo of the camera & how it can be used to widen participation in Second Life events then please get in touch.

Many thanks.

Paul.
