Cat Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Did anyone catch Richard and Judy yesterday, and the item on the virtual reality world Second Life? I think there may also have been something on the French news at 8pm as well.If you've never heard of it, just try a google news search. I've not read the articles, but the headlines say that Sweden is planning to open a virtual Embassy, and that the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and Vodaphone are building their own islands there. How extraordinary, apparently there are 3 million "residents", some of whom spend more time in their virtual life than their real one, and it even has its own currency, the Linden dollar.Is anyone here a "resident"?

samdebretagne Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 A few weeks ago, I heard that Le Pen was using it to drum up interest for his campaign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
