Virtual Worlds have been growing up during this past years, they're basically a representation of what we do in our daily life. As anything it has they're pros and cos it depends of how we handle this virtual world. The latest implement of this technology in today era is the VR system in our smartphones but most of this things began with online gaming such as warcraft where gamers where allow to interact with the people, I even know some stories where couples meet through virtual realities games or online websites.
The experience of gaming and online websites play an important role in this virtual worlds. A personal experience with virtual reality would be when I bough a ticket for a concert i wanted to go how would be my view from my seat and thanks to this virtual reality i was able to see my view from my seat. Training programs are also great with this virtual reality programs they give a better experience to the military and people aspiring to become doctors as Nicole Saidi mentioned in her article iReport: 'Naughty Auties' battle autism with virtual interaction "virtual worlds are an emerging and important tool not just for autistic people, but for the people who know them" this is a clear example of how virtual world can help no just tot he victim it also helps to the people around them because people who has to deal with a relate in a sick condition go through a lot of things and thanks to this virtual programs it would make the experience a little bit less painful
Sometimes when we over use this virtual world it becomes a problem for example people tend to have a second life and they take it serious, they don't even want to go out no more and they stay at their house most of the time they tend to think that what they're living there is better than the real world Diane Metha in her article After Second Life, Can Virtual Worlds Get a Reboot? she mentioned "In virtual worlds, however, you are not alone together, you are really, truly together—connected by these bodily representations caused avatars." this is what people tend to think when they create and avatar and spend a lot of hours in this virtual world. As anything in life this is a good entertainment tool as long as it don't become an addiction.
Virtual World are the present and the future, we're living this today.
