I always hear these virtual world
                excuses.
           I don’t have time.
     Why would anyone want to...
      We already have telephone/
           email/websites....


NOTE! Happy to answer these still
Have you ever met, or been, someone scared
     or dismissive of virtual worlds?

Are we washing away the cave painting?

       A new disruptive technology?

Threatening all business and government and
              social structures?

       Embrace it or wither and die!

So many good reasons to just be virtual...but..
Messing with the metaphor




Why does this have impact? It felt strange
Its Not All Second Life
