Via the WA cfs society I heard about and have joined a Murdoch study on the use of internet by people with cfs, the plan is to get everyone involved in a Second Life support forum and see if it helps people. I have to do an hour long interview at the start as a baseline, and another in six months to see if it made any difference.
Anyway, this sounds like it could be a rewarding experience (I've always wanted to try out Second Life but never had an excuse :)) If any of you are interested and live in Australia or Canada let me know and I'll give you his email address (I was going to obfuscate it, but I'm never sure how clever bots are at untangling those things)
The resources are apparently available for anyone in Second Life, I'll post details and thoughts when I have them (on Monday)
I have a sneaky suspicion the Mike Kent(*) I'm in contact with is the unisfan Mike Kent, and am trying to remember if we ever met or I just heard his name a lot before I make a social faux pas :D
(*)nb the email address in his contact field there is broken, though the mobile number works
