Tectonic has created an ant simulation in Second lIfe. The video shows a
simulation of how ants find food, leave a pheromone trail for recruiting,
and occasionally run into dead ends. It's a short, pretty interesting video
to watch.

Second Life's scripting language and avatar creation tools make it ripe for
this type of simulation/instructional video. Are there any others you'd like
to share? Link to them in the comments.
