If you dismissed my post in March and cocktail party ramblings about business opportunities in online virtual worlds such as Second Life, maybe this will finally earn your attention — Second Life has made the May 2006 cover of Business Week magazine. (Thanks to friend John Murphy for pointing this out.)
Read the Business Week article, and check out a podcast interview with Business Week journalist Rob Hof. So what is your Second Life business plan?

This is serious business.
I am going to create a character named FIMM that f*rts on command for money.
My girlfriend is getting into this lately. She’s way more of a webgeek than I am, but I have a TON of ideas. We’ll see what happens.
BTW, I stumbled onto this entry after putting “chicago bicycle company” (remember them? I have a line on one for sale) into google and having the entry about your Paramount pop up on the first page. I still have my 1993 Ibis that I can’t bear to get rid of.
Hi Rick,
Sorry, just got your comment (several weeks later). SL is crazy, huh? I haven’t visited for over a year. I can only imagine how much it’s changed. Shoot me an email with your identity and I’ll look you up next time I venture into SL.
