A virtual technical networking architecture is disclosed that allows a user to locate resources, seek expertise and collaborate with identified experts located within a virtual city in order to mentor, teach and resolve problems or fill a need. The virtual city offers a gaming technology environment to users, wherein the users and experts are depicted as avatars within the virtual city and different levels of expertise and different affiliations are identified by different avatar accessories. The virtual city connects users for learning and problem resolution and also recognizes the accomplishments of experts and memorializes these accomplishments in the virtual city. Accordingly, an entire city of experts in a wide variety of fields can be built, that brings large groups of people and resources together for intellectual capital and knowledge management. The virtual city can then be used to educate, train and disseminate information.
