Second Life experience

I created a character in second life virtual world today. It's like online RPG. It can allow students to have more interaction with peers and the teacher. But it may decrease the learning efficiency because students may pay more attention on the game rather than learning TL. Now I have a question: can teacher assign quest in TL for students in SL world?   

Scottish National Portrait Gallery

I went to Scottish National Portrait Gallery last Saturday. It reopened last December so I feel lucky that I have a chance to take a visit during my one-year living in Edinburgh. There are a lot of paintings and photos in this gallery. These pieces of art are all about people and Scottish city. It may take you a whole day to admire these pieces of art.
