I’ve had an average of 4-5 people through at any given moment.
I’m pretty impressed with the fun level but the uses of Lively remain to be seen.

Until then, stop on by the Virtual World SIG Lively room and say hello!

    The post is here: virtual world hangouts-so many to choose from

    They also include a matrix summarizing some qualities of the worlds, which is similar to the chart by Virtual Worlds News located here.

    So now with so many worlds getting online, the question will be shifting to: Which worlds for which users?  Which functions work for which users? And on to the next generation of all of these worlds. That’s the purpose of the Virtual World SIG to sort these things out for investors, companies and users.
    It’s good to see virtual worlds getting attention, as of course MRO thinks that they are a model for many elements that will form the future of the metaverse.

    Aug. 27 join us for a discussion of the latest virtual currency to hit your inbox.

Here we go.

    As you can read in the Metaverse Manifesto the death of old media will not be pretty. It will be a tooth and nail fight for reality itself.

    Today, Studio SFO had  videos taken off of YouTube by a DMCA takedown! These videos were produced entirely by Studio SFO down to the textures themselves. Can you imagine?
    All I can say is, the Metaverse Manifesto predicted this, perfectly. Our studio is in the process of replying.

    Make no mistake, the old media dinosaurs have no choice but to try to use corporate power to intimidate and destroy all competition. That means you – whatever you create be it physical, audio, video, game, whatever. Prepare to defend your creativity against these false claims. I’m in the process of merely trying to find contact information for Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. Unacceptable. Completely unacceptable behavior.

    I post this here purely to alert the community to the attack. You are next. Let’s get together on this. Make no mistake, they will not stop here until they attempt to shut down all user-generated media including the channels themselves. You are next.
