The Sydney Morning Herald ‘s Michael Dwyer has written about his experiences as a new avatar in SL and he’s a sceptical resident after spending a number of hours in-world. He also raises an issue that crops up constantly – the weirdness of those first number of hours and uncertainty on etiquette etc.
Not a mention of the education opportunities in SL and lot of focus on sex, so situation normal really.
The only lines of this article really worth reading are the ironic title and the last line “Wherever we go, there we are”.
Pity, opportunity lost for the SMH to look at SL with intelligence.

BTW, you may be interested to see the May 2007 issue of Vogue Australia, which by contrast has an interesting and intelligent article titled “A Life Less Ordinary” by Cathrin Schaer, including comments from Angela Thomas aka Anya Ixchel (see her blog at http://angelaathomas.com/)
