The Real World project features two successful events organised and executed by these communities: Melbourne Zombie Shuffle 2010 and Melbourne Pillow Fight 2010.

There has been much debate amongst scholars about whether "virtual communities" can and should be considered "real communities". Read more here.

The "Virtual Communities VS Real Communities" debate was put forward to friends of The Real World. There was a fairly equal split between both sides of the argument, with both making equally valid points. Find out more here and here.

The Real World has been brought to you by Elliot Owl.
