Abstract

The situation under the COVID-19 pandemic has caused changes in ones worklife and interpersonal communications due to health and safety concerns resulting in a distance and remoteness from one another. Many people managed to work at home or so called "work from home" facilitated by computing devices, the internet and software tele-communication platforms. Computing literacy has become a basic skill needed for everyone not only for communications purposes, but to create more forms of online businesses during the locked down. Creation of a virtual world, following the Second Life concept (founded by Philip Rosedale, 2007) which provides an online space known as "Metaverse" for anyone to explore parallel to the real world, has become popular.
