Holly’s post earlier this week made me realize that mostly we’ve talked here about Second Life’s main “adult” grid. By the terms of service, only those 18 years and older are allowed to login to this space. In order to provide an alternative for teens aged 13-17, Linden Labs created Teen Second Life in 2005. [...]
Back when I used to live in merry England, I worked in a consultancy. Yup, I was a vendor. I used to love doing demos – it was an opportunity to showcase our product in a controlled and pristine environment where it worked perfectly.
