Cory Doctorow Comes To Second Life
For anyone following either the Second Life current events or Cory Doctorow’s antics at Boing Boing, this is probably not such a novelty. For anyone else, this might be the opportunity to get in game and grab a free copy of Cory’s latest novel, Someone Comes To Town, Someone Leaves Town, which is a particular, bizarre yet entertaining read, with weird characters evolving in a not-so-normal world. In game, or on Cory’s website, where the e-book is also available, although not as prettily as made in Second Life – “made” being the word, given how a “real” book got created and assembled by a handful of residents, and rendered readable directly in world.
E-book or prims-book? Whatever strikes your fancy! Be also aware that on July 24th, at 2pm PDT/5pm EDT/10pm London time, Cory himself will be in the game for an online discussing and signing of his novel. Another reason to go and have a look at Second Life and at its growing creative possibilities.
