Seeds of Fire in Dream

I’m losing faith that Second Life will ever be anything close enough to a stable platform for anything valuable.

Last night, I went to a very simple conference in Second Life. The organizers had planned for the possibility that SL would crash, indeed, the audio portion of the program was not even hosted anywhere near Second Life. SL was mainly being a sense of place kind of provider, nothing more.

It still crashed.

Not only that, but it locked everybody out of that space, so we couldn’t even come back in-world to participate.

Luckily, we had the audio portion, still, and went forward. But it was vastly disappointing.

If one is to actually produce and coordinate and run an interactive RP story in Second Life, one will need to get to a point where SL is actually stable first.

And, the way things are going, I doubt very seriously at this point that it will happen any time soon.

And I find it disappointing to the extreme.
