Not sure how much though. He's our resident Internet Guru.It may sound pathetic, but you should see the big name companies that are getting involved with Second Life. I think even the Department of Defense, if memory serves me correct. LoL... I can ask my coworker when he gets back from lunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest swank Posted July 27 Report Share Posted July 27 My partner has built himself a pretty decent second life over the last two years LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest coach Posted July 27 Report Share Posted July 27 It seems to be pretty popular. Already a multi-million dollar economy has sprung up around it. Real dollars, not virtual. As was mentioned earlier, some big-name businesses are getting into it, both for advertising, and for sales.Depending on how things go, this could be an interesting way to do online shopping. Can you imagine rather than clicking through boring page after page of product lists on a regular retail website, you walk virtually down an online retail aisle and choose your products just as if you were in the store, except your lazy ass is on the couch.
