Stylehive’s Virtual Showroom in Second Life

Note: the demo is a bit slow because of a troubled internet connection when I did the demo. Normally, both Stylehive and Second Life are very fast.

I recently found an entirely new way to interact with a website. Last week one of our clients at Ideacodes launched a virtual showroom in Second Life. When you visit Stylehive's virtual showroom you can see objects that users of the Stylehive website have bookmarked at the website. These objects such as furniture have been rendered in a 3-D format which you can interact with in the virtual space. You can even sit on a sofa or chair and then click on it which will launch your browser, and take you to the users bookmark page of that particular object. Very interactive and very fun.

This 3d browsing concept looks really interesting.

The 3D format is very cool.
