Which avatars above are closest to the modesty level you generally choose for your own avatar? That’s among the questions you’ll answer in this intriguing survey on avatar and real life identity, for a study by University of Missouri-Columbia media professor Elizabeth Behm-Morawitz, PhD, who’s also an active Second Life user herself. “I am interested in understanding how people represent themselves in virtual worlds, interact with others, and the influence of virtual worlds on offline life,” she tells me. She’ll be sharing the results with New World Notes, and up to 10 participants will get L$5000 each from a lottery drawing.
