From: someone
Ryan had to explain to them that Quirk is the name of Keir's persona, or avatar, in "Second Life."

"They looked at me like I'd lost my mind," Ryan said.



Heheh, I bet.

But good for him. :)

and when SL starts entering the RL, how many times will we see quotes like this?

You may not remember but over a year ago now I had a job at a big nonprofit. VERTU (a group that raised money for nonprofits back then) raised some money for them, quite a large chunk, if I remember correctly. Just before the check was to be cut, the big nonprofit freaked out and almost didn't take the money because they didn't know what SL was and they couldn't put their minds around the concept. Later, the New Media Manager, came up to me and said, "that was just so . . .cutting edge. I mean really, really out there on the fringe."

So my guess, we'll see that quote lots and lots! :D.
