AOL to step inside Second Life |
Ó
There's really no denying the current success and popularity of Linden Lab's Second Life. Despite the many issues it has to face daily, people and business continue to flock to its servers everyday. Then, there are also some critics (as there always are) saying that residents of SL should first get a "first life".However, it seems that tirades like this wouldn't stop the onslaught the game is making across the industry. Just take a look a this one for example: online service provider AOL announced today that it has decided to make its presence felt inside SL's highly popular virtual world.
To be known in-game as AOL Pointe, the online media company shared that they will be building an amphitheater as well as an extreme sports park. Furthermore, one spokeswoman for the group mentioned that they are planning to use SL as a springboard for AOL's content and services such as AOL Music, Moviefone, TMZ and Lat34.com.
She added that Pointe will also be paying close attention to the game's dynamics and research how they are being received by users. Well, we've got just two things to say to AOL: First, welcome aboard to Second Life, and second, be prepared to meet its rather vigilant residents. If you do something they don't like, AOL will be sure to hear from them.
