Second Life seeks to mix the real and virtual worlds - V3.co.uk - formerly vnunet.com

 

It seems to me that the virtual ideology is coming to a close.  It might be due to the economy.  I think it is more to the limits of the 3-D virtual reality has been reached.  Social Media is still growing strong, if not stronger.

To create a 3-D virtual world takes far too much time, and not many are programmers.  As with games before SecondLife, it is hard to have a computer that would match the requirements needed to successfully run SecondLife.  Even then, it would not make running SecondLife smooth all the time.  The more that is on the grid or a sim, the more lagging it will be.  Another words, SecondLife can be more of a pain in the butt than it is worth.

I have stated that the technical support is not as good as it could be.  Maybe that is why SecondLife is dying.  The ones that are running it do not care all that much to make their system the best it can be.  A product is as good as the creators.  Maybe that is why our economy has failed.  Neither the government nor its people care enough to be their best.  Every action has an opposite equal reaction.

Spite all that I have said, the Internet is still alive and powerful.  I still strongly believe that the Internet will help the economy by crating jobs.  We all are already using the Internet in our day-to-day life.  It is only logical that more and even new jobs will be created online for us to grab onto.  I cannot say what will happen in the next five years because I cannot say what will happen tomorrow.
