@Raskin: Second Life’s creator, Linden Lab, is a profitable company that’s got an amazing amount of press and attention over the past few years, growing exponentially. I would call that an “utter failure”, would you?
This won’t compete with Second Life. I have a two question litmus test for what a Second Life competitor needs: (1) Can you get naked? (2) Can you be something other than human? Until there is a virtual world where the answer to both is yes, you’re talking about ones without enough creativity allowed (think Disney) to attract the same market that Second Life does.
The most hard core SL users are very creative types who like to look on the VW as a blank canvas and don’t like Disney-like restrictions.
