Second Life
Clopin asks me if I want to talk to Flair about Second Life.
I visited Second Life few times and I am not convinced, but again, I am sure youth is.
Now my tip to Flair is: why are you looking to Second Life players through weblogs?
I mean, to me, finding Second Lifers in the blog world is like looking for meat in a bakery... Second Life people are gamers, and chatters, while bloggers are mainly writers. And off course there will be a lot of bloggers testing Second Life (we are early adopters after all.) but I am not convinced Second Life is our 'tool'.
Why don't you make an alter ego in Second Life and take your interviews over there? Because it is that simple: go over, fly to an island, and start talking to people. Write down your own experience, start to talk to other avatars and try to find your way around. That's how we did it.
There wasn't one person that didn't help me over there. So I am sure you'll find them too.
As for other SL's, I refer to Corneel, my real life neighbor, he seems to have spent more time in Second Life.
Me, for now, prefer the delights of my First Life above the virtual one.
It seems more 'touchable' for the moment :)

I tried out Second Life as well but wasn't impressed either. Simply don't have time to explore it and there is no real benefit beside some entertainment. It's too time confusing, I even don't find the time to breed up my Aibo!

SL is great, it changes your view on life...
Posted by Corneel | December 7, 2006 12:49 PMThe only downside is that it is very timeconsuming...
