This article uses Second Life and World of Warcraft as two very different examples of current virtual worlds that foreshadow future developments, introducing a number of research methodologies that scientists are now exploring, including formal experimentation, observational ethnography, and quantitative analysis of economic markets or social networks.</p></blockquote> <p>听起来挺有趣的。记忆中，已经有过不少以社会性软件为对象的研究论文了。自己做一个网站，然后以它的统计数据来发表研究论文，这似乎挺酷的。</p> <p>一个相关的信息，也许有人还不知道：如果想在 <a href="http://secondlife.com">second life</a> 上做一点科学相关的探索，可以联系自然出版社，他们可以给你一点 second life 的土地。说明在<a href="http://network.nature.com/groups/Second_Life/notice/2007/04/10/how-to-get-land-for-science-projects-in-second-life">这里</a>。</p> <div class="og_rss_groups"><ul class="links"><li class="first last og_links"><a href="/group/web.science" class="og_links">网络与科学</a></li> </ul></div> http://gezhi.org/node/686#comments 网络与科学 科学2.0 Second Life 虚拟世界 Thu, 02 Aug 2007 06:06:27 -0700 Yan 686 at http://gezhi.org
