The Lindens have opened up the application process for their 2010 Linden Prize, which awards USD$10,000 to SL projects that best fit these criterion:
From
- Work in Second Life that also achieves tangible, compelling results outside of Second Life. YES
- Distinctive, original work using Second Life that clearly demonstrates high quality, execution, function, aesthetics and technical sophistication. YES
- Work that has the capacity for inspiring and influencing future development, knowledge, creativity, and collaboration both inside and outside of Second Life. YES
Applications for the 2010 Linden Prize are now open!
"The Linden Prize will award one Second Life Resident or team with $10,000 USD for an innovative inworld project that improves the way people work, learn and communicate in their daily lives outside of the virtual world. This annual award is intended to align with Linden Lab’s company mission, which is to connect all people to an online world that advances the human condition."
The picture of the skins makes them look great, but do they really have "tangible, compelling results outside of Second Life"?
ReplyDeleteThe winner of last year's Linden Prize (Virtual Ability) is a disability support community for people who have disabilities outside Second Life. Are you saying that some pretty skins can be compared to that?
