Google launches "Lively", virtual world sim

[Kaffeine]

A really bad news for Second Life: Google is launching a new service today called Lively, a browser based virtual world add-on that lets users create and customize avatars and worlds, interact with other users, and generally have a richer social interaction than is offered by GTalk today. Worlds can be embedded into web pages, although only Windows users on IE or Firefox can view them, after an add-on download and installation. Mac and Linux users will have to wait for now.

Huh? Why do u wanna live in a virtual world ? Real life isn't good enough for you ?

I don't get this type of shit. I mean I get playing shit like the Sims but shit like this where you interact with people on the internet? Where you buy shit online? I think that shit is too much lol. Why would you want to do some shit you can do in real life through the internet? We play Grand Theft Auto because its fantasy. We can kill people without going to jail. We want to interact with people online why? You can do that shit in real life lol. I don't know I just don't see how their's a market for it. But i'm sure there is. Second Life is doin' pretty good isn't it?
