Great Use of SecondLife – “Annonymous” Health Advice for Teens

PSFK has news on the first really smart use of SecondLife that I’ve heard about in a while:

“Spanish-speaking teens can virtually visit a health clinic anonymously on Second Life to ask doctors embarrassing questions that may be left unasked face-to-face. Incorporating instant messaging and video chatting, the clinic will allow teens to privately address pubescent-issues like STDs, dermatological and emotional issues.”

I’d love to see an English-speaking version of this.  I wonder if there are legal concerns about offering this kind of advice in this type of environment but I think anything that encourages kids to be informed about sex and health, especially when most schools seem to fail its students in this regard, is worth trying.
