On Nova de Il Sole 24 Ore of Thursday, March 8 the best Luca De Biase introduces a comment on Second Life : according to him can be described as a 3D browser. It is indeed an interesting point of view. Are born each day in SL places, offices, shops, estate agents, etc.. the user with the avatar can go to visit. And this is exactly the mechanism by which people visit the business and personal sites, portals, ecommerce and much more through the "old" browsers such as IE or Firefox. Besides being an interesting point of view, the view of De Biase could help us when we are asked "What is SL a game?" would in fact an argument against the common perception that SL is a role playing game. However
SL probably can not be compared to an equivalent of the browser, here's why: * SL
not only allows the user interaction - publisher of the site, but also direct interaction context and user - user, without such add-ons messenger or the like;
in SL is a coin * "owner" and one that governs transactions;
* SL is a program of some tens of Mb to download and install on your PC, while the browser is much lighter;
* Last but not least: SL was developed by Linden Lab , a company that has therefore created the content and the container, defining not only the logic of presence that the mode of interaction and visualization. It 's a bit like saying they invented the sport (eg football) stadium where they play together. Conversely, the normal pattern is: a sport becomes popular and emerge as a consequence the need for adequate space for the audience - precisely the stages.
