Metaplace – like Second Life, but open from the start?
Wednesday, September 19th, 2007Areae want to reinvent virtual worlds, using open standards and protocols. It sounds pretty good:
“Right now, there are lots of people who want to use virtual worlds for research, or education, or business, but it’s just too darn hard to get one going. Now [with Metaplace] you can create a world in just a few minutes and start tailoring it to your needs.”
Definitely worth looking into, when they recover from the Slashdotting…
I wonder how much Areae’s announcment influenced Linden Labs to announce their plans for the future of Second Life (or vice-versa).
