Virtual reality possibility in every way uniting cultures and people world apart. It is used in group meetings at work, as a creative environment for interior decorators to show their clients. Medically can help a Doctor and his patient figure out his/her ailments. In "Going to the virtual office in second life" Rashik Parmar stated that not only did the companies execs save travel time, the environment was so engaging they also brought forth more ideas than usual.
Some pros of a virtual reality environment is the fact that it can induce a major platform for all to get their real thoughts and real feelings out in a throughly engaged atmosphere. On the other hand this can cause a con also cause confusion amongst cultures when one person doesn't understand the next culture. Another con is the fact that behind the virtual mask people tend to take on that persona. "In virtual environments people can freely choose avatars that allow them to opt in or opt out of a certain entity, group or situation" which makes a person believe he is then not responsible for his behaviors in a virtual reality.
I see a big future with virtual reality as long as the companies using it maintain its use in a proactive environment. It can be used as a shopping experience for those who are bed ridden.
