Second Life
I was born in my Second Life, sometime in the last month ..
What a journey it has been, simply exploring !
IBM has come up with an online virtual gaming scenario called a second life. After the Internet Boom , everybody felt that INTERNET was at its peak, and that all the euphoria surrounding it would subside hereon. But that was not to be with Web 2.0
Here IBM has come up with what could be the next level of Internet, 3-D Internet.
I come alive in my second life only on weekends, to visit places that are VIRTUAL, to meet people who have their avatar's, to be at a non polluted beach, to fly high in the sky ( literally ), and all.
I had played a game called PlayBoy , which had similar avatar's and the interaction was a lot of fun. I feel *this* innovative concept to be borrowed from them, just that this SECOND thing ( in all aspects ;-) of innovation and life ! ) is online.

I do it all the time. Its useful because you can 'create' the virtual friends the way you want. They will be predictable and support you in bad times. Also, it will provide a world where you are the boss and if something is right, people don't say it to be wrong.
