  1. I think Second Life is a lot more popular in Japan than in the rest of the world. I think Japanese culture would be more suited to it since the Japanese are so indirect. Not that that is a bad thing, I’m just making a comment. I wonder if Docomo is really behind it or if someone has just taken the liberty to make such a place.

    1. I don’t think anyone loves DoCoMo so much that they’d spend over $200 a month on land fees, research the company in such depth that they can create a museum, set up a shop with the latest handsets (always changing) AND work as a secretary, answering questions you may have about their service. 😉

      As for popularity, I googled “Second Life demographics” and found that in 2006, 78% of users were from the U.S, 8% from the U.K and 4% from Canada. That only leaves 10% for the rest of the world. Despite Japanese only making up a small percentage of overall usage, big companies still feel there are, or will be, enough users to make setting up virtual offices worthwhile. Alternatively, their employees might use them as virtual meeting spaces.
