The [w:World Bank] is holding an event within Second Life to present the 'Doing Business 2008 Report'; the event is listed here.
It is interesting that the World Bank chose to do this within Second Life. I'm not sure that it is particularly good, though - as Canuckflack wrote:
...It’s a noble effort and an example that the World Bank and its’ partners are looking for new ways to communicate their ideas - but Second Life has not proven its worth as a communication tool...
...How are the clients of the World Bank - many of them living in remote corners of the internet - supposed to sign on for this report launch?...
Good point.
