At 8:24pm on July 7, 2008, Kevin Burrell said…: how much time does second life take up in your life? I don't feel like I would have enough time to dedicate to it.

Think we should lead him down the rabbit hole? ;)

At 11:32am on July 7, 2008, Kevin Burrell said…: Thanks for getting back to me! I did have a question about online communities and digital spaces that you could hopefully answer.

Where is the technology at in regards to hosting an online and real time event (like a rock concert) in digitally simulated online worlds like Second Life? Is it possible? How many people could cluster in one spot without there being any computer performance problems?

Thats the start. I am currious to see if feats such as this have been already accomplished. If you have any resources or websites to direct me to I would love to mull over them as well. Oh and before I forget thanks for your time it means a lot!
