Hi Jonathan Many of us are also over at the SL Researcher's List serv http://list.academ-x.com/listinfo.cgi/slrl-academ-x.com Tracy -----Original Message----- On Behalf Of Jonathan Basile I am researching gendered relations on Second Life, and wanted to know if anyone was aware of studies or rese4arch that had been done on this particular online community. I am most interested in studies focused on gender, but anything more general would be of interest as well. Also, let me know if you are a second life user and interested in chatting. Thanks! -Jonathan Basile _______________________________________________ ******************************************** Tracy L. M.
