Virtual Worlds Connect
Its one thing having Virtual Worlds where you can do almost anything but having these worlds connect just takes on all new meaning to what’s possible.

The creators of IBM, Linden Lab and Second Life have made it possible to teleport avatars from an Opensim virtual world server and Second Life’s Preview Grid; this will have a massive impact on the future of virtual worlds.

Imagine being able to visit one virtual world and then seamlessly move to another virtual world of your choice, what would that mean for you and also businesses?

We are waiting to hear when the interoperability protocol will be available but this will move virtual worlds into another stage of evolution, one that will improve both user experience and business potential.

Developers will have a field day with this new technology and what they can create with it thanks to plans for Linden Lab to make Second Life extensions open source and IBM giving extensions to the Opensim community.

What will the ability to move between Virtual Worlds mean to you?
