- Above: a map in Second Life
Address Maker is designed to let communities that lack typical street address infrastructure create Plus Codes that can be used as a permanent address that works in Google Maps and with the platform’s APIs.
Addresses in the metaverse?
- Second Life provides url's that will take you directly to the place.
- Kitely provides web pages that give a direct link to the place.
- These are installed virtual worlds, so you have to open a viewer to go to these places.
- Web-worlds can have deep links (url's) that lead directly to a particular place.
What could Google do?
- Allow metaverse addresses in Google Calendar.
- Provide Google Maps of major metaverse provinces.
