Keeping up with social networking sites
Look, I don’t know whether I’d join this new one. It is called weblin. Avatars talking to avatars? How virtual do you want to go?
Here is what weblin offers:
Meet your friends and new people on every website!
Weblin makes you and others on the Web visible as small avatars. There are others on the same page you are on right now. Weblin opens a new and exciting world on every web site.
Get to know people with the same interests.
Do you want to enter this world? Get your personal weblin now!
Perhaps those millions on Second Life would like this sort of thing. For me it is a bit of a concern. People can disguise themselves very well with an avatar. Who would we be talking to. We just wouldn’t know.

It’s all true. We could be talking to someone online that we didn’t know!
I could be talking to someone who is really a mastiff and they have a little weblin web sig as a polar bear. How could I tell?

Very amusing Vladimir. And what happened to your revolution?

No, we wouldn’t.
But thank you for the thought
Second Life is not about dinky little avatars on emails and MySpace, or the 3D google chatrooms for websites, or gravatars on blogs. SL is light years away from weblin, or twinky, or there.com or the G rated virtual kiddies’ worlds that are so popular with the 10 year olds.
It’s not about learning PHP and Bryce 5 either. It’s not even about making money!
