Here’s the latest at Second Life… I’m David Lawrence.
Last February, an unofficial Apple Store opened in Second Life, complete with a glass elevator and Genius Bar. That store was merely an homage from an enthusiastic fan. But the fake virtual Apple Store may soon face some competition from a real virtual Apple Store. Apple has filed a US patent entitled, ‘Enhancing Online Shopping Atmosphere’ and appears to contain plans for the creation of on immersive and interactive online shopping experience.
Lillie Yifu makes a healthy living as an upscale avatar escort. So she sees a side of men that their real world mates probably don’t. And she’s decided to share some wisdom, with an essay entitled, “A Page From Men: The Missing Owner’s Manuel.” It’s a bit of practical advice for keeping men happy in the real world, based on what she’s learned as a working girl in Second Life. Ladies – ignore Lillie’s advice at your own peril.

Here’s the latest at Second Life… I’m David Lawrence.
Things on the virtual campaign trail are getting ugly between Clinton and Obama supporters. Virtual campaign headquarters are being ransacked and rallies and marches disrupted. The trouble started back in 2007, while during an Obama rally at the Second Life Capitol Hill area avatars raided Obama’s virtual headquarters. Then during a Clinton rally avatars that seemed to support Obama started shooting at Clinton supporters. Since then virtual gunmen have also appeared at an Obama march and assaulted and shot people, actually knocking them offline.
Next… Cinemax will premier the film “Molotov Alva and His Search for the Creator: A Second Life Odyssey” on May 15th. The film, directed by Douglas Gayeton (co-creator of the video game based on the film ‘Johnny Mnemonic’), is presented as a documentary. Sneek peeks can be viewed on April 20th and May 8th on Cinemax.com and YouTube.
