Now, they've earned a completely foreign correspondent.
Via Sam Davidson, I just found this great article about one crazy future for journalists. The BBC reports that Reuters will be opening a new news bureau inside the virtual world of Second Life.
Earlier this year I reported from inside Second Life, and I'm looking forward to the new kinds of writing this new genre will produce.
Check it out:
"Reuters media correspondent Adam Pasick who will report on the lives and business dealings of Second Life's residents.
An avatar resembling Mr Pasick, called Adam Reuters in the game, has been created to act as a virtual reporter in the world for the news agency.
Second Life has almost one million members and 400,000 of those are regular visitors to the online world."
