There is a way to connect a pandora chat bot to Secondlife by web, so
maybe it can be possible with Hal? There is a free program called
Ava pet (latest 2.5) that handles the pandora chat bot in second life.
It also has command that when sent "in game" in second life u can make
it move or sit on objects etc. (the commands controling the avatar and
not acctually Hal).
The most basic form of integration of a bot and also open source program is called LibSecondlife test client and is run in a dos promt.
http://www.libsecondlife.org/wiki/Download for free source or program.
There are many other free ones aswell that are run in windows and
more userfriendly.

For those that doesnt know, second life is a virtual reality, used
for design, architecture, buissnes, learning, schools, community even
some real life govermental institutions, but also for networking, chat, games etc. It is an open 3d world which means u can integrate your own scripts into this fictive enviroment effecting all aspects of it.
Here is a link to an article about AI development within SL (secondlife) from dailytech.com .

managed to integrate my hal into the SL enviroment.
