New orientation area, sponsored by Acura

By Reuters Staff

You may notice that Reuters Island looks a bit different this week. We’re pleased to announce the launch of our Second Life registration page and orientation area, sponsored by the Acura RDX.

You’ll see a few models of the RDX on the island, and also on a tab in your heads-up and wall & floor displays. This is all part of a unique advertising deal that we’ve done with Acura. Instead of building its own Second Life island, Acura is advertising on our in-world network of displays, and on Reuters Island itself.

In a few days you’ll be able to receive a drivable virtual RDX by visiting the island or by clicking on your Reuters display. We’ll also be publishing a series of driving tours so you can check out some fun and interesting places to drive your car within Second Life.

The orientation area will be staffed with helpers during the following hours (all times PST):

Schedule: Monday - Friday
Times: 0400-0700, 0900-1100
