- About Virtually Olivia -

Welcome to the chronicle of places I go, and events I attend in my Second Life travels. I post lots of photos and landmarks to get to stops I recommend. Most of this blog - but not all - is dedicated to educational builds or places pertaining to education. I am an ardent Second Life traveler, and this blog reflects that. Olivia Hotshot.

About Freudbot

"Freudbot is a chatbot avatar designed to talk with avatars in SL about his life, his theories and the people he has known. Freudbot was designed by Bob Heller and Mike Procter from the Centre for Psychology at Athabasca University and is currently being made available here at The Theorists Project as part of an informal collaborative research project on immersive & interactive educational experiences. The Theorist Project has been designed by, and built in association with, the Counseling Program in the College of Education and Human Services at Montclair State University."
