Second Life and the Public Good: A Community Challenge
Introduced yesterday by former Linden CTO Cory Ondrejka and judged by Rik Riel (along with Howard Rheingold and the American Cancer Society's Randall Moss), the USC Network Culture Project is seeking SL-related proposals that create projects which advocate "conservation, human rights and international justice, global peace and security, reproductive health, digital media and learning, or juvenile justice." Up to three finalists will get L$100,000 a month and land for three months to realize that vision. There are information sessions on May 12th and 14th; proposals are due June 1st. Go here to get all the details.
