Thinkerer Studios is a network of people with the common goal of promoting creative and outfacing products and services in Second Life. The view of Second Life taken by Thinkerer Studios is that it is not just a form or entertainment, but also a tool to be used by creative people to do creative things that have effects in "real life."
