SL talked about in TWiT #49.

http://twit.tv/49

I'm just now listening to it, so I don't know what's mentioned, but the description says Second Life is one of the topics.

Hehe... the show notes says Leo registered for Second Life under the name Pruneface Spatula.

(NOTE - I am not divulging secret or private information -- Leo revealed on his website his SL name.)

I've yet to hear it but all these people started showing up on my sim today...Scoble's tower is in the NE corner of Slackstreet.

Eric/Spin/too lazy to whip up a SLURL

One question that came up during the podcast was whether or not there is a "universal binary" SL client for the new Intel Macs. Can someone answer that?

(I suspect there isn't one yet, but is LL working on one?)

Yes, there is.

Yeah, like he said, there is. There's actually an SL forum just for it:

/276/1.html

And general Mac SL discussion here:

/164/1.html

just caught it - interesting that Robert Scoble (one of the most well know bloggers - http://scoble.weblogs.com/ - and works for Microsoft) was the one talking about.

He mentioned Microsoft had purchased an Island which is interesting. I think I heard "eric rice island - slack street" - I'll have to see if it exists next time on line.

Found this link on his blog: http://scobleizer.wordpress.com/2006/03/27/second-life-is-an-os/

BTW, they also talked about SL in TWIT #50. But somehow they seemed not that informed.. (like they didn't know the role of Mitch Kapor etc. If I am going to speak about it I'd also try to gather some information beforehand and not looking it up during the show

They also noted that SL might also become bad press at some point as myspace was getting. They forgot to mention though that there's a teen grid.

So if I wouldn't know SL myself I would not be very informed by then actually
(but that seems to be the case with media most often anyway..)

....can anyone confirm it, and tell the rest of us what they want to do with it!
