Hi, I am looking for any publications that might have to do with why Virtual World residents or VW residents might choose different clients or viewers, as they are called in the SL community. Here is why I ask: I am conducting work in Second Life among a very committed group of mentors/disability/education communities. I notice a lot of debate about what viewer is the best and there hase been some disagreement in the ranks when one group decides to support a certain viewer/client. SL has a number of clients that residents can choose from. Some apparently are better for artists/machinima filmmakers, others are for sex roleplay. This multiplicity of viewers seems more common in user content created worlds then in more game based worlds, but maybe I am wrong here. I am interested in any lists of viewers or any insight into the presence or absence of this in other worlds. I am even more interested in any discussion or literature that talks about the social/cultural/community consequences of the decision to use one or another. I hope this is clear. Thanks so much!
