Some questions from the demo.
No time in first life, why would I create a second life?
I think it is a bit like having an email account or having a mobile phone. A lot of your communication and learning will happen through such virtual worlds so I guess we would not have much of a choice in a couple of years.
If I run a class in such a virtual world, can some random guy walk in and cause disturbance?
Most such systems lets the user set up groups and access can be controlled based on who is the member of this group.
