....but LL are not going to remove "Places" Search,.... so it's a non-starter!!. They set up "LL Traffic Future" group to discuss alternative ways of making Places Tab meaningful and relevant.

As I've mentioned elsethread (although no-body seems to have viewed it, so either it was one thread too many on the topic or, um, everyone has me hushed by now ;) ), if you change search from a 2D to a 3D search, so that it's the SL content itself that's searched rather than a largely arbitrary textual summary of it, then traffic metering becomes unnecessary.

Maybe so, but not necessarily. Even if it's true, this is still a good opportunity to push for what lots of people have been shouting for for ages, both here and in the blog.

I read it already :) It takes a bit thinking about.
