"Virtual Worlds

Whether it was Barbie or G.I. Joe, girls and boys alike have always played with some sort of doll. With the best selling video game, The Sims, the dollhouse came to life, inspiring online virtual worlds like Second Life where grownups are making real money playing pretend."

Just noticed that this was on last night..did anyone catch it? What was it like, any good?
And is there anywhere we can download it from? ( In a perfectly legitimate way of course!)

dunno if cnbc would have it at their site or not, maybe youtube - i hate to say, a pretty average special, and the sl segment itself was somewhat short, but it did feature a couple of residents and their stories. :)
