To provide a foundation for some recent and forthcoming arguments, I would like to point to Virtual Worlds: hype or reality for businesses?, an 18-minute discussion with three panel experts, hosted by Silicon.com. Imho, this video is bang-on stuff. Anyone with an interest in virtual worlds, Second Life for business, and how this technology might shape in future should take the time to watch it. This panel nails it regarding sideways scalability, the open sourcing of server hosting, dependence and fragility of single source hosting, competition, and lack of objectivity when so much focus and commitment are with one sim. This is so much more intelligent and succinct than all the fluffy hype being blown around the info-winds, imho.
