Since "Googling" is already a recognized verb, how about another one for the 2.0 age?
"Metaversing": The process by which metaverse culture becomes integrated with the real world.
Why do I think we need this as a verb? Well, going through my web traffic recently, I noticed someone found this blog via Google by searching "sex tips for
guys". Because somehow, that search yielded "Alicia's Sex Tips For Men-- In Both Worlds"... in third place. Right behind a Cosmopolitan Magazine article (but before an AskMen.com page) of the same topic. (It's dropped down a touch since then, but currently remains on the first page.) In other words, thanks to Google and metaverse's Web 2.0 mesh, the avatar known as Alicia Chenaux is providing sex tips for actual people in search of them.
Is this possible in Lively?

I think not. Secondlife is a Lively killer. Always was always will be. Google crippled themselves by restricting content creation to unremarkable boring exceeding poor quality graphic technicians that work for corporations. Google's Lively will never be a place for art. It will be yet another place for the pedos to congregate and troll for victims. If that is what those companies that turned on the very place and people that made them happen then so be it. Good riddance.
