Second Life - its still about sex

I wonder if Second Life will ever be able to get a new image.


This mail just landed in my Gmail, after months of silence - it's not promising and surely it will postpone my future login a month or two.

No gambling in SecondLife - what will become of the alter universe build for exactly that !?

Wow, that was my first though, when I read this over at techcrunch today.

Being a bit of a fallen SL user, with an avatar left to meet it's maker (for now), it's a bit interesting to see what direction Second Life will take from here.
Maybe in the long run, it can help save SL transforming it from this sex-focused money-making world, into a more true place of social interaction. Just maybe...

I'm not jumping back into the SL world, mainly because it's still too time consuming, and my original question "How do i combine my FirstLife with my SecondLife?" has jet to be answered. I do not believe this to be the future of web(3.0) (shame on me - I don't know if web3.0 is as bad to say as web2.0 - is it?)

The true web3.0 - in terms of social interaction, will be much more based on a closer sibling of the browser we know today. I think examples like Flock and the ideas like XFN is more likely to be the near future of the web. (again I know that "web" is a huge concept, just like web2.0)

Spectator cam from Second Life to public website

Just a small idea of having a kind of follow cam, as you see it in shoot-up games today, making it possible for outsiders (outside of SL) to have a look and see what SL is and what is going on right now.

Could be a list of SL-residents wich you could follow arround, if they where signed up on some sort of list...
