-------
"Second Life," the online world that brings players together from across the globe to socialize, shop and even fly, is developing a second career as a hot spot for learning English as a second language (ESL).
It's a classic innovation -- a novel way to use a tool created for an entirely different purpose, namely to have a good time. That's still the reason why most players come to "Second Life," but English-language instructors who spend time with students there say they're combining fun and learning -- and getting excellent results.

Could this take off in Korea? |

As retarded as Second Life is (and it's pretty retarded), that's a novel concept.
Oh noes! No more English sluts! They're all on Second Life! |
