Weird — I just found out about Regina Spektor last week, and suddenly I see her name pop up everywhere. But she’s been around for, what, five years?

Bringing Real Business to Second Life…

I’ve been checking out Second Life for a week or so, but I still don’t quite get it.  But I need to stick with it, because everytime I shake my head and vow not to return, I read how people……

You realize, of course, that the first thing people are going to do is climb the stairs and have sex in the bed.

Which is why I had them add a “sleep” action to that bed. It’s AWESOME!!!!111!!!

Ah, yes. “Sleep.” I’ll bet people will be sleeping their little, virtual brains out. If the population of the Internet can managed to have sex through a text-only chat, don’t think that the lack of a verb is going to stop them.

Y’know, I’ve always imagined this is how the parties I don’t get invited to look. Including the overhead, ah, sleep.

Well Greg, a free account and I’ll make sure you’re invited to groove to the cool anti-folk sounds of ms. regina spektor.

explaining second life to non-techies was entertaining.

non-techie: “So uh, you log in, and walk around and talk?”
me: “Yup!”
non-techie: “And people do this?”
me: “Yeah! 5000 are on right now! Look, I can fly!!!!”
non-techie: “Did you have many friends as a child?”

That’s pretty much every conversation I’ve ever had in my life.

Assuming it concluded with, “I will get a restraining order unless you leave me alone right now.”
