Text Rulez!

Richard Bartle paid a visit to the SL Future Salon last week, under the sponsorship of Salon Host with the Most, SNOOPYBrown Zamboni, and of course the usual salonistas. I was busy fishing for walleyes at the Herald hunting retreat in northern Minnesota, but there is a transcript on Terra Nova, and a review by Hammie Linden. Looks like it was a good session, with Richard pushing his line that 3D graphic environments just ain't all that, and reminding us that we shouldn't sell text short. And other stuff too.

Correction: Hamlet's article is a preview, not a review. As of this writing, no review has yet been posted.

My thing on TerraNova . . . . . .. . (http://terranova.blogs.com/terra_nova/2005/08/bartle_in_sl_te.html) is not a transcript, it is heavily edited by me, hence contains value judgments and some interpretation by me, the full transcript can be found here: http://slfuturesalon.blogs.com/second_life_future_salon/2005/08/raw_transcript_.html.
