We interviewed in-world counsellors Transcend and Tranquil Wellman.

Coverage of news, issues and events occurring in virtual worlds or those who create those worlds
Three mini stories in one today:
1. Ad farms are the target of the latest Linden Lab crackdown. There’s likely to be widespread praise for this move.
2. Second Life’s ABC Island is having a Valentine’s Day event:
“Bring your sweetheart or come and make new friends, or both! Celebrate Valentine’s Day (Thurs 14 Feb TODAY!) at ABC Island at 8pm AEDT on the ABC Park ice rink, near the Sandbox, or roller skate around the ‘ABC logo’ path. Join the Valentine Heart Hunt! Free skates available, or bring your own trick skates”.

3. We received this short missive this afternoon:
“I’m doing research on second life addiciton, it would be a great help if people would take a survey I set up

Second Skin is an upcoming documentary on the impact virtual worlds are having now and the increased impact they’re likely to have into the future.

There’s a trailer for the documentary released today and it looks like a polished production covering some of the key challenges facing society in the virtual world sphere. World of Warcraft is a heavy focus but Second Life and other worlds appear to get decent air time.
