Back on April 19, Cheerie posted a couple of photos of work that had been completed in Second Life for Cisco Systems. Here are a couple more pictures from the rebuild of the Cisco Live area including the inside of the Photo Sphere and Video Center. The biggest change was a refresh of the “look” that matches the branding for this years Cisco Live! physical world event to be held in San Francisco.

On a personal note, I am happy with the evolution of this build. We took the comments we received last year and try to incorporate as many improvement for ease of access that we could, for example we removed the elevator that traveled up and down from the Sphere down to the Video Center and installed a simple teleport up into the sphere. While the elevator was real cool, it did not engage people enough to go up into the sphere. And it was slow. We also improved the entrance into the Video Center to make it more inviting and easier for a new Second Life user to get into the building. There were other tweaks here and there to numerous to mention. All of this is important in building a more effective engagement for Cisco and its community.

I would love to hear others opinion on this build.

All day events will be held here on June 30 and July 1.
