@ Maria "Eventually, I believe that grids will be as ubiquitous as websites. Every company or organization will have its own grid.
And even a one-region grid could still be worth listing — just as there are one-page websites that can be worth visiting."
I totally see this happening, and with spiders and bots indexing them in search engines.
@Gaga "Arguing that a grid is not a grid unless it is a registered company or charitable none-profit is basically the same as the Second Life business model which has a vested interest in confining membership for the purposes of containing a protected financial system or perhaps under age persons. But, generally, it is to keep people and content confined."
And this confinement in and of itself causes many issues related to maintaining that status quo.
Gaga "An open Metaverse will continue to grow like the Internet did."
Exactly...
btw, Maria, is there any way to add Google +1 to your site? The communities are really growing now-))
