Touch Life: iPhone App for Second Life
(Text taken from http://nwn.blogs.com)
Touch Life is the name of an iPhone app for Second Life interaction which just went live in the App Store, and while I like Sparkle, the iPhone Second Life/OpenSim app from Japan, it’s pretty bare bones. (I just use Sparkle for short chat sessions and processing L$ payments.) This new app, by contrast, promises some pretty robust features: a dynamic world map, inventory, and most exciting to me, a feature where you can upload iPhone photos directly into your Second Life account. (Think of all the cool mixed reality possibilities that function will enable!) I haven’t had a chance to try it out yet, but Radar Masukami has a detailed, illustrated review of the beta version, and he’s pretty excited. As with any third party Second Life app, caveat emptor, but Apple’s approval process has a good reputation for weeding out dubious apps (and a bad reputation for taking forever.)
Full details can be found HERE and also HERE .
If you try it out, report what you think in Comments! And be sure to share your feedback in-world with Edward Magic or Robot Core, SL names of the app’s developers. Image credit: pocketmetaverse.com
