POPSCSI Comes To Second Life An upcoming episode of CSI:NY will occur partly in Second Life. It will center around a murder who is stalking his prey virtually through SL. While I am not a big fan of CSI (can anyone say overacting) this episode will be interesting for one main reason... How many people will sign up for SL after the episode, and will the influx of users crash the SL servers? This should be cool :)

POPSBuy Armani In Second Life Interesting ... Now you can buy pixelated clothing from Armani in Second Life. This will most likely prove to be a more successful venture for a clothing company than other business that have attempted to set up shop in SL.

POPSVirtural Integration: Google and Second Life? There has been a lot of talk lately about the integration of virtual worlds with the internet. The fact the Google likes to have it's fingers in all honey pots does not surprise me. While I enjoy Second Life as a creative platform and sometimes virtual vacation it is in need of a more stable and powerful system to work under. Perhaps Google and Linden Labs (the creators of Second Life) could work together. Google would be able to supply a much needed power boost to the relatively small Linden Labs.

POPSVirtual Business Interesting article. Despite the drawbacks I believe that it can be assumed that the future of the web, and business conducted on the web, will be done more virtually than it is done at the present time. Because of this business will have to adapt and learn how to run within a virtual environment like Second Life. Despite the present drawbacks I believe that this is all very exciting for the future of business and the web.

POPSSecond Life Better Off Without Big Corporations Just a little article for all you Second Lifers out there. I think its great that all the cookie cuter corporations are pulling out of SL. Second Life is to imaginative and free thinking for business like that. I know that when I shop in SL I love to buy what people like you and me create, people who work on the internet or in photoshop a lot and when we have free time we create stuff for Second Life. That's way cooler than any old corporation.

POPSGaming On A Saturday Night Anyone? No longer hiding in your parents basement playing Dungeon and Dragons anymore are you? Nope you now do your gaming in a world that is made up of ones and zeros. Oh geeks of yore that once rolled the dice and played the card you now develop c. tunnel syndrome due to abuse of the mouse and the joy stick (get your mind out of the gutter). I salute you and your never ending quest in the search for magical mystical games, and the passing of the torch to the web 2.0 generation. Be proud, play loud, and don't piss-off the Dungeon Master.
