The above is Hiro’s Molecule Rezzer constructing a ball and stick model of a lactose molecule in Second Life. It’s reading data from the HyperChem database converted into a notecard.

You can get one for free from the American Chemical Society’s sim*.

This is one of several examples of data visualization tools in Second Life mentioned in Rose and Tess Linden’s presentation at the She’s Geeky conference last weekend.

Daden Prime combines Google Maps with news feeds from the BBC, Al Jazeera, and CNN; earthquake data from the USGS; and 3D maps and panoramas of Birmingham.

* When you get Hiro’s Molecule Rezzer, select it to edit, then select “Recompile Scripts in Selection > Mono” from the Tools menu. The Rezzer will run much faster.
