Metaversatile. Linden Labs gets it right....

Second Life keeps getting smarter and smarter. They're the front runners in the race to build the immersive Internet of the future - you know, the one with goggles and gloves? The one where you make out with flying geometry?

• We’ll be open-sourcing the back end so sims can run anywhere on any machine whether trusted by us or not.
• We’ll be delivering assets in a totally different method that won’t be such a burden on the simulators.

• We’ll be using open protocols.
• SL cannot truly succeed as long as one company controls the Grid.
