NBC's hit faux reality show The Office is coming to Second Life. Well ... at least Dwight is coming. Photos and info can be found on Just Jared including images of Dwight playing his identically dressed avatar. In fact, you can find the Dwight Shelford's avatar in search featuring a profile that proclaims his love of a variety of NBC Universal movies and shows, and his desire to "calculate the exchange rate between Schrute bucks and linden dollars."
I suspect this all ties in with the show's recent theme where the intern-turned-district manager attempts to drag the Scranton office (kicking and screaming) into the computer age.
Now, I'm a diehard fan of The Office, but as one who lives and breathes Second Life, I sincerely hope they don't paint the virtual world as yet another haven for slightly-twisted, socially inept, loser oddballs. We have our share of Dwights in Second Life, but we have our Jim and Pams too!
