I had a lot of fun messing about in my limited way with Metaplace. The experience took me back to my childhood hobby of creating worlds in Hypercard. I joined to evaluate its potential for use in education & like the reviewer at CNET I can see it really catching on in that market. Overcoming SL's learning curve and access issues makes sense for some institutions/student populations but for the bulk of them it's overkill. Metaplace has the potential to offer some serious competition.
