経由（テレポート＝瞬間移動）で、ロイター通信セカンドライフ支局に行ってきた。

通信社というよりも、どことなく「海辺の図書館」といった感じのする建物であった（３階立て？）。

ちなみに、入り口の案内パネルにはこう書いてあった。

Welcome to the Reuters Atrium!

Here you can pick up a copy of the Reuters News HUD and two home versions, the Wall Display and Floor Display. They will give you access to exchange rate information for the Linden dollar, Second Life news written by bureau chief Adam Reuters and a range of Reuters real-world news.

Inside the Atrium, you will find a video screen carrying Reuters news as well as discussion areas for various news categories. The discussion areas may be used as general-interest areas for these news topics, or in conjunction with the HUD and home display, which allow you to indicate interest in a specific story, and dispense landmarks to teleport to a chat area to discuss that story.

Reuters' goal is to provide fast, accurate and unbiased news to benefit the community and the fast-growing Second Life financial sector. Adam Reuters will hold regular office hours within the Atrium; his calendar is available here:

Throughout the island there are bits of video - top Reuters news in the main atrium and some interesting clips in other areas. Be sure to push 'play' on your movie control to view these.

Please contact Adam Reuters with questions about Reuters in Second Life.

Enjoy your stay!

に支局を開設するのは、あと５年くらい先のことになりそうなので（根拠はないが、なんとなくそう思う）、ＮＨＫだけでもセカンドライフに支局を開設すればどうかと思う。
