New Series Launches Thursday: Virtual Business Innovators

[Caleb Booker [Onder Skall]]

This Thursday at 11am SLT on Metaversed Island we'll be launching a new series of events called "Virtual Business Innovators". The concept is to showcase the most innovative new businesses in the virtual world. While our pilot episode is going to be featured on SLCN.tv, for the time being we're just going to raise the maximum occupancy of the island and hold the event at the one location.

Our first session is entitled "Platforms on Platforms", and features guests who have helped develop platforms that run inside the platform of Second Life.

Dimentox Travani - DCS2
Dimentox has created the Dynamic Combat System, a platform easily installed on any sim in Second Life. It makes combat between characters possible, and supports a sophisticated non-player character system. Weapons makers are licensed through the system to create and sell DCS-enabled weaponry. At present it is used in well over a hundred sims.

Crash Prefect - DarkLife 2
DarkLife 2 is a complete functioning commercial MMORPG running inside Second Life. In addition to having custom weapons and artificially-intelligent monsters, they have a virtual currency of their own operating separately from the existing virtual currency of the Linden Dollar.

This is a new series so it's difficult to gauge how much of a crowd to expect. As a rule of thumb, however, it's best to arrive early to secure your spot. We'll be increasing the maximum capacity of the island, but there's only so many a server can handle.

See you there!
