CALL FOR PAPERS

 

CALL FOR PAPERS
3rd International Second Life Community Convention (SLCC07)
August 24-26, 2007, Chicago, USA
Track: “Business in Second Life”
http://slcc2007.wordpress.com/
SCOPE
The emergence of virtual worlds and the Web 3.D changes to way of doing business. Web 3.D is the synonym for internet based virtual worlds, where people can create own 3D ‘virtual’ personalities. One of the most famous of these virtual worlds is Second Life. It is undergoing an evolution similar to that of the Internet in the mid ninetieth and it might impact profoundly the way people cooperate, communicate and collaborate and conduct business. The recent entering of companies such as Toyota, American Apparel, Nissan, or Adidas on Second Life is a first indication for the upcoming role of this platform for the next generation of conducting business online.
The conference provides a forum for industry, academia, and government to present their latest findings in virtual worlds like Second Life and the underlying technology to support those applications. Therefore, we invite contributions (research paper, working paper, work-in progress) from a broad spectrum of disciplines including economics, management, business, marketing, finance, information systems, and computer sciences.
