At this point I see them all as countries on the globe hammering out the specifics of their border treaties.  I also see them as potentially serving different metaverse needs - WoW for playing, Lively for work / business, SL for art and commerce, etc.. and therefore not so much competing with each other.  I guess we will see what happens in time.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Kat Claxton</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 09 Jul 2008 13:56:13 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
