I just read this. On the front page even!
EQII and UO are mentioned too but SL gets the bulk of the article. _____________________

Anyone spot what looks like a mistake in his comments regards SL?
(can be read one of two ways, but to an outsider probably reads the wrong way) |

Yes, he referred to GOM as "Second's Life's" own currency exchange program called
Gaming Open Market." _____________________

Oooh, GREAT quotables:
"For charitable activity, no virtual world matches that of "Second Life," which since its June 2003 launch has seen fundraisers for tsunami victims, the American Cancer Society and even a veterans organization, the drive for which was led by a "Second Life" resident who had served with the Special Forces in Afghanistan and Iraq." ""Second Life" is not an MMORPG, but an open-ended virtual world where residents are free to make of it what they will courtesy of in-house development tools and programming scripts. " I'm printing this page! Organizers should be proud, for sure, but big congrats go out to all the people who have come forward and donated their time and money. This is a tremendous thing for Second Life to be known for! _____________________

Awesome, and congrats Katt! Its nice to see some others getting press instead of the "Chip n Flip, Anshe n Aimee" show.
They didn't ask for permission to use the graphic from SLBoutique with the t-shirt though! As tempting as it is to call a Microsoft organization on the DMCA, I think I'll let this one slide. Regards, -Flip _____________________
