    Virtually virtual love in a virtual world.

    Linden Lab Targeted in Second Life Sex-Code Lawsuit
    Having virtual sex in Second Life isn’t what it used to be.

    The 6-year-old virtual world, run by Linden Lab of San Francisco, is apparently so littered with bootlegged sex toys that it’s hard to know whether you’re getting the right bang for your buck.

    Raising the stakes on a two-year-old intellectual property controversy in Second Life, a popular seller of online adult novelties filed a federal copyright- and trademark-infringement lawsuit against Linden Lab this week. The suit claims that Linden looks the other way, while virtual residents rip off the SexGen product line, which includes specially programmed beds, rugs, sofas and even a coffin that enable consenting avatars to engage in virtual sex acts.
    You know, the more I read this article, the more utterly bizarre the whole scenario of avatars making out seems. In a world of total and utter pointlessness (which is what Second Life seems to me) this seems to be the absolute pinnacle of crass idiocy. Come on people, get out & get a life.

    Re: Virtually virtual love in a virtual world.

    Never saw the point of second life, generally i play games because its something that i wont be able to do in real life (e.g. be a warrior in ancient greece) but with this its just playing a fake and boring life. If i spent as much time as some do on secondlife then im sure i could change my life, being a bit overweight could be in the past but im happy as i am generally!.
