What do you do if your job in the real life isn’t quite paying the bills?
Well, you get another job in your SecondLife!

That’s right, boys and girls, yours truly has been self-appointed as the unofficial health and fitness correspondent in the world’s most robust virtual environment. My alter-ego avatar “Kix Kayamanu” (who incidentally has her own blog, Facebook profile, twitter feed, and gmail account) has been invited to write a health column called “Shape Up” in SecondLife’s leading virtual magazine The Looking Glass.

My (I mean, Kix’s) first article was published this morning called “Avatars Have Heart” – check it out here!

Just read the article. Hmmmm…I don’t know if there is a reverse trend from SL to RL in regard to exercise. I’ll be curious to see if any research is done and it’s outcome

I disagree. I think there will be a reverse trend… not necessarily in the way we may predict, but I think SL has more impact on health than we give it credit for…
