Countdown to Second Life

The countdown is of the 30 hot 'n' humid Sandlands days remaining before I enjoy my second annual visit to Cannes, to attend the MipCom television program market event.

When I return Eid Al Fitr will just be coming to an end and the busy winter season (when one can finally breathe again without feeling that you're drowning) will commence. The Dubai Motorshow, of paramount importance for the GearOne automotive television channel with which I am involved, will certainly be one of the high points.

However, I think that when I return I must finally start a serious exploration of virtuality (the realm in which the two beauties on the left exist).

The embedded video is an interesting introduction to SecondLife, the extraordinary voice-over adding a je ne sais quoi to the whole idea.
