No sooner have I re-activated my Second Life account after a long absense, do I come across this article about a hypercube construction inside a virtual world that tries very hard to emulate the real world. I'm definitely going to take my Second Life character and visit this structure! |

Wow. Check out Stolen Sidekick. The story so far... Girl takes a cab ride and leaves her Sidekick behind by accident. Someone steals the Sidekick and starts taking pictures and logging into AOL. Girl gets new Sidekck, and when the SIM card is installed, all the pictures and AOL passwords from the other Sidekick get downloaded to the new Sidekick. Girl's friend decides to make a public fool out of the thief by posting the pictures and all email correspondence with the thief. The "Internet Vigilante" effect kicks in and people start posting tips about who the people pictured are, where they live, etc. I can't wait to see how this soap opera ends... |

I came across a very interesting read today. Laukosargas Svarog has used the framework provided by Linden labs' Second Life and built what appears to be a true ecosystem. She has weather, birth and death of plants, animal polination. It's a testament both to the flexibility that Linden has built in to their system, as well as the creative imaginations of a single individual. I wonder what would happen if her virtual plants were allowed to 'escape' her garden and colonize the entire world...? |

I think I'm listening to history happening. I think that podcasting is the most incredible thing to happen to online content in quite some time. I'm a big fan of tech-related podcasts - mostly from the ex-TechTV crowd. However, this week I was shocked to hear the latest from Diggnation and This Week In Tech. |

Google has announced a proposed settlement to settle claims of click-fraud. The part of the settlement that concerns me is that the $90 million isn't to be paid out in cash - it's to be paid out in advertising credits. I haven't seen any online commentary about the impact to Adsense subscribers. Imagine if Google decides to provide the $90 million in advertising using their Adsense program. What if they decide to pay out to the Adsense subscribers (the people who actually display those context-sensitive ads) much lower than the going rate for that ad? They could even pay zero (like a Public Service Ad), and the Adsense subscriber couldn't do anything about it. They probably wouldn't even know! |
