Lots of Second Life in the New York Times
Posted Thursday, October 19th, 2006, at 2:01 pm Eastern by Mark Wallace
There’s a long piece in today’s New York Times about the virtual world of Second Life and the fact that real-world corporations are increasingly making their way there to explore promotional and other possibilities. Not a bad read, though of course it raises the question of how much value we bloggers can add while people like the Times and Reuters (not to mention CNet and Wired News) have their eye so closely on SL these days. Sharpen your keyboards, kids.

Blogger news is always better for those of us who are closely watching the space.
Real-life mainstream media with professional journalists and editorial boards with policies backed by subscribers and advertising validate stories and facts in ways that blogs never can. Even in getting it wrong, the MSM shapes the discourse and people’s consciousness about the new technology.
