Mitch Kapor (to understand who the man is: Mitch Kapor on Wikipedia) just presented a new promising technology, allowing people to move avatars, interact with objects, fly and run in the virtual world of Second Life.

In my opinion, mouse and keyboard will remain the main tool for years to come, but this kind of technology will open up new possibilities, expecially for virtual tours of simulated “real” places, or applications in which the user is supposed to interact with the environment using his body, rather than sitting in front of a PC.

We’ll see… for the moment, I’m excited about this new promising tool!
