Oh I'm not dismissive - I am sure that meetings & training are not the only things the CIA is doing in SL - that's why the comment. My beef is when media sources situate technology (whatever it may be) as being 'bad' - channelling fear to the masses - especially those with little knowledge or experience of new technologies (also reminds me of MySpace & teens hype). I have several news feed for SL & virtual worlds and I'm just struck by the number of articles in the last two-three weeks about threats & dangers of virtual worlds (terrorism at the top of the list - that and virtual dating & cheating). I can't help thinking if this somehow connected to the US elections this year.... t No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
