A Brazilian ISP Enters a New World
While mainstream media focuses on large brand launches and talks about the deep engagement Europeans have with Second Life, we’ve noticed something interesting. Take a look at the Second Life world map, and you’ll notice that islands dedicated to Brazil’s citizens and culture are almost always completely full.
Which makes Locaweb’s launch into Second Life extremely timely and relevant. Locaweb is Brazil’s largest ISP. Centric just helped them enter Second Life with a singular focus: serving their customer base. Which is why you’ll find a complete in-world help kiosk displayed prominently in the largest building on the sim: their customer center. Tied to content on their website, it’s a way for Second Life residents to get their questions answered, without leaving the world.
You’ll also find Locaweb-branded Second Talk headsets available at convenient kiosks on the island. Though these devices are much more stylish than our original Second Talk devices, they use the same familiar Skype back-end. So, while we eagerly await integrated voice, LocaWeb customers can pick up a headset and chat with Locaweb personnel today.

Fair warning: to get the most from this build, expect to exercise your Portuguese language skills.
