one of my partners in crime, sifu moraga, just twittered about an entry on tony walsh’s clickable culture blog relating the news that IBM & SecondLife are going to cooperate on the development of the “3D Internet”.
among the points listed is:
Open standards for interoperability with the current Web: Open source development of interoperable formats and protocols. Open standards in this area are expected to allow virtual worlds to connect together so that users can cross from one world to another, just like they can go from one web page to another on the Internet today.
the press release goes on:
Linden Lab has formed an Architecture Working Group that describes the roadmap for the development of the Second Life Grid. This open collaboration with the community allows users of Second Life to help define the direction of an interoperable, Internet-scale architecture.
excellent news that we are officially cooperating with Linden Labs on several issues!
