lang=EN-US>Virtual worlds have garnered unprecedented profile in both the media
and academic research. Many IS Managers in their thirties have gained experience
with 3D environments via gaming, and the appearance of game ready commodity
hardware means that virtual worlds are now feasible as an Enterprise-wide
Information System rollout. 3D virtual world interfaces are now
increasingly used across a company as complementary information spaces, to
web-based and other system services. </SPAN><SPAN

<P style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 6pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN
lang=EN-US>This strong momentum in IS practice, however, has not yet been
matched by an intense academic focus. In particular, what is lacking is an in
depth analysis of these worlds as potential business information systems
interfaces, and their relevant design and use
consequences.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify" class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-US>The <B>aim of
this special issue</B> is to provide a forum to present and discuss the emerging
role of virtual world technology in the information systems community. The
special issue explicitly advocates multi-disciplinary approaches that expand and
integrate the current isolated research efforts in this exciting new area of IS
research.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify" class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-US>The special
issue specifically aims at reporting on and discussing empirical and theoretical
research in the use of Virtual World technology in Information Systems. In
particular, we hope to provide a picture of the present state of international
research with regards to how virtual worlds can shape the design, analysis, use,
or management of information systems in organizations. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify" class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-US>We encourage
submissions that report on the use of research methods including experiments,
surveys, case studies, focus groups and/or other empirical methods for the
discovery of insights in the deployment, uptake, use, success or failure of
Virtual World technologies in enterprises. Research contributed may range
through various aspects of virtual world information systems, from development
and integration, to impact studies on users.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify" class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-US>We <B>especially
would like to encourage submissions on atypical usage of such worlds</B> for
Information System domains, in order that new and novel research may be brought
to the attention of the international IS research community. In addition, we
welcome papers that present, introduce or <B>discuss novel approaches</B> to
emerging virtual world research, as this new domain will inspire different
investigative approaches.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
