As if my first life wasn't enough... [Jan. 22nd, 2007|10:53 am]
I'm curious... has anyone played with Second Life? I'm curious to see what its like... if its anything like the metaverse I imagined when reading Snow Crash... ;)

Seriously though, I'd like to know if it feels like a game, or if it comes across as more of an alternate reality. Lately I've been getting more interested in the ARG types of games, like Perplex City and reading the ARG SIG's whitepaper. WoW takes enough time that it could be considered an alternate reality, but I'm not sure where the line is between mmo and alternate reality. But I do like the fact that the line is blurry though.

From the whitepaper )
