Methods, apparatuses, and computer-readable media for providing at least one availability metaphor of at least one real world entity in a virtual world are disclosed. In one embodiment, a request to provide a virtual world model comprising at least one availability metaphor may be received. For each at least one availability metaphor, an availability state of a real world entity associated with the availability metaphor may be determined. A modified instance of the virtual world model comprised of the at least one availability metaphor may be generated based on the determined at least one availability state of the at least one real world entity associated with the at least one availability metaphor. Each availability metaphor of the modified instance of the virtual world model may represent the availability state of the associated real world entity. The modified instance of the virtual world model may be transmitted for rendering.
