The 10K is certainly an estimate and even defining 'active' is difficult. That said, from daily exposure to the SL community there certainly doesn't appear to be even 10K 'regulars' - but again, defining that is the challenge.LowellFri, 11 May 2007 03:50:10 -0000http://www.metaversejournal.com/2007/05/11/aussie-population-update-for-may-10k-here-we-come/#comment-1320724Hi,<br><br>Not sure I agree with the nearly 10k - I put it at much higher than that. There are 3.1m active participants, of which we are (using April's stats, not May's) 2.43% = 75,000. Okay, so 10% of them is 7.5k, but I would think that the 'active' number is higher than 10%, seeing as how much emotional and physical energy one invests in being a part of the 3.1m active participants.<br><br>LeeLee HopkinsFri, 11 May 2007 01:21:03 -0000
