Exploring Fenway and Second Life
We had a cool event yesterday evening at this year's AIIM / On Demand . It actually consisted of two events: one at Fenway Park in Boston, the other in the virtual world of Second Life . It was an unprecedented announcement of 15 new Xerox products and solutions. At the Xerox pavilion in Second Life, I demonstrated the Extensible Interface Platform for our office products, and the new Nuvera Emulsion Aggregation toners. A few analysts joined me and explored the virtual worlds for the first time. It worked OK, except that the streaming video feed didn't cooperate with us, but of course these are the challenges of being an early adopter of new technology.
Virtual worlds enable Xerox scientists around the world to collaborate and interact with customers. With virtual 3D visualization of new ideas, our innovators can dream with customers. Together they can design even better products and services. Also many thanks to DJ Waki for coming to our Second Life panel, and for sharing my enthusiasm for virtual worlds!
