Social virtual world There.com has launched an alpha version of its service in the Philippines in association with local social networking site Groovenet, according to this announcement on the There site. There Philippines exists separate from the main There grid, on its own hardware, though it may eventually be merged with the current grid, according to CEO Michael Wilson. It sounds like Filipino There residents will be jacking in for the most part from Internet cafes, which should is an interesting twist. The move could give There a strong toehold in Asia, which is a potentially enormous market, given the vast number of MMO players in the region. We await further developments.
