And though you're too modest to mention it, I'll note that I give *you* a shoutout—you've been one of the important voices reminding people to cut through the hype. A lot of what's going on is new and exciting, but by no means all of it is new and learning from the history (which very much still influences what's happening) is so important...</p>Osiris commented on 'What The Sandbox & Snoop Dogg Could Learn from Second Life'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341bf74053ef02a308db15da200c2022-08-15T16:25:41Z2022-08-15T16:25:41ZOsirisIn SL, owners of property can restrict teleportation to specific landing zones, such as the front door of a mall...<p>In SL, owners of property can restrict teleportation to specific landing zones, such as the front door of a mall or other shopping venue.
