An Autonomous Metaverse

October 1, 2007

I have been involved in a discussion over on Virtual Worlds Connect about how law applies to cyberspace. Some side discussions got me thinking about how one might go about creating a virtual world that could have an independent legal system. I thought I’d capture the general ideas in a video. After the introduction to [...]

A Toy Before the Holiday

September 21, 2007

I picked up one of those little tennis ball thrower dog toys a few days ago, but hadn’t yet brought it in. Before it was Shabbat I thought I would bring it in and play with the dogs. Just bringing it in from the car the handle was a smell fest for the dogs – [...]

August 26, 2007

I was just reading an article on ABC News about the SLCC. I find it amusing the constant “well only x people made a lot of money in Second Life”. What percentage of Internet users make real money on the internet. Is it even 1%? What use is the Internet then? Oh..it was started as [...]

Brain at Work & Visiting Grandpa

August 26, 2007

In looking at the blog I’ve noticed I’ve not been posting much, and over on viddler I’ve not been videoing much. Now one theory might be that I’m not spending as much time on line lately, but really that’s not the excuse. I think the problem is best described as analysis paralysis. I tend to [...]
