Watch this video: Vollee, a company specialized in software for mobile devices, presents Second Life on a mobile phone! This is the press release.
I think this is a great way to improve Second Life usage, and to give something more to the final user. Good job!

Read this article about fashion, and how real world brands are behaving in Second Life, both looking at their initiatives, and the relations with other people (other fashion designers, mainly).
The problem, in my opinion, is the law.
Fashion is perfect for Second Life: fashion is not just about the product and the quality, it is mostly […]

Seems Superb, Showing SL Statistics, Seriously, Shy Softy Sophomores!
Ok, no more “S” words, I swear!
Linden Lab just released some nice graphs, showing interesting Second Life statistics.
What I infer is:
1. The Gambling Ban didn’t affect the growth rate;
2. Land mass is rapidly growing (so why reduce price, morons?)

Thanks to Jean, I discovered this article about an e-commerce strategy class at the Iowa State University, which is using Second Life to explore new business opportunities.

The article is somewhat introductory, but it shows how people are reacting to a new opportunity, which will surely become more and more important in the years to […]

Mitch Kapor (to understand who the man is: Mitch Kapor on Wikipedia) just presented a new promising technology, allowing people to move avatars, interact with objects, fly and run in the virtual world of Second Life.

Last friday, I had the pleasure to host Andrea Benassi (from Florence, Italy), and five students from New York City, in my “masterpiece”, the Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi (here the SLURL, if you know what a SLURL is).
We were in company of […]

[disclaimer: I personally know Jeff Barr, and I have a business relation with Amazon.com]
Almost a year and a half ago, Jeff Barr, senior tech Evangelist for Amazon.com, was interviewed by Reuters, on one of the most important topic EVER: The future of shopping (particularly) in Second Life.

[important disclaimer note: the term “fascist“, as in the geek/computer science world, means “doing something by authority, without respect for people’s rights” or “doing something in an extreme way”. It has no links with (and no reference to) real life fascisms of the 20th century]
It seems that Linden Lab will significantly cut land prices, to […]
