Second Life (2013)

Facebook Integration

In this project Second Life was integrated into the Facebook SDK meaning that a player in the virtual world could communicate with their Facebook friends. For instance, a player in Second Life could invite friends within Facebook to join them at a virtual location in Second Life. Also a player in Second Life could take a photo in the virtual world and post it to their Facebook account.

Communication's In Game Chat Client

The chat client used in prior versions of Second Life were very basic and difficult to navigate. The goal was to allow snapping and un-snapping of chat conversations. Also another feature was the "Do Not Disturb Mode" which allowed a user to block all incoming chat and then retrieve those chat conversations upon exiting "Do Not Disturb Mode."
