Good lord, Derek, where do you live? Writers are frequently forgetting that there are many areas of the world where it's dangerous (or just plain gross) to go outside for a run. This is one reason why virtual worlds are so important! Re “Or even better yet, why not just go for an actual run in real life? …I’m sure the view would be far nicer.”

Good lord, Derek, where do you live?

Writers are frequently forgetting that there are many areas of the world where it’s dangerous (or just plain gross) to go outside for a run.

This is one reason why virtual worlds are so important!

One female architecture student from Sweden designed a dance space in Second Life in collaboration with a (physical) local one. Together they produced a performance in her Second Life theater that was projected onto several screens in the real life performance space. Online participants saw projections of the real-world attendees; and as the virtual audience moved around, they change the performance in both real and second life. Now if only they had wii controllers for the performance–they'd really be dancing. One of my favorite developments in Second Life has been the use of it as a tool for university education.
