Robert Scoble Interviews Linden CEO Mark Kingdon About the Second Life 2.0 Viewer - Discuss Here!

As promised yesterday, here's Robert Scoble's interview with M. Linden:

So far, it's a very general interview, owing to Scoble's audience. (The new Second Life 2.0 viewer just announced today is only discussed briefly, but no worries, I'll be doing a hands-on review imminently.) On his blog, Scoble says the new viewer "is important because it makes significant moves toward the Web and shows a new strategy: one of integrating into social networks."

Hrm.. I can't get the video to play for me at all.

I think the most telling part of the interview was M Linden (Mark Kingdon) having a bit of difficulty explaining to Scoble how to quickly get to an event or a location that he was interested in.

It should be as simple as saying "Copy this and email it to them."

The ums and ers suggest evasiveness or discomfort and do not demonstrate a confidence in the simplicity in the interface.

When M can say with confidence to a person like Scoble "Send them this URL and they will be walked through the process" then you know it's there.

And you know what? One day, it'll get there. I know it's their goal. But they're not there yet.
