 Linden Research, Inc. is a port city of San Francisco, California, U.S., game development company. developer network to encourage players to create their own can be a variety of activities, including aerial adventure and enjoy the beautiful night to night clubs. Players can also make friends, build their own wealth. the whole game not only brings real players still surprise and adventure.  [Zhuantie] Reuters amazing initiative: real media presence
virtual world events in the game to the player as a news release. Cnet their attempt to Reuters and is absolutely a good deal.   Traditional media have overcome the difficulties may find a gap .10 16 March, Reuters announced in the simulation game Second Life (Second Life) in the establishment of a news organization. This sounds like an interesting project. Although the game Players have long been used as virtual weapons, equipment, pay for, but most people may not envisaged to make the virtual world to the event as a news release.
Second Life is a very popular MMORPG in the United States game, began operating in 2003 and now has 900,000 subscribers. In this virtual world, players can play the role, the use of virtual currency the exchange, which greatly enhance the players interest in virtual transactions. Statistics show that Second Life players have reached the daily $ 35,000 the total expenditure. can imagine, in this virtual world, will occur similar to the real world breaking news, entertainment, business, and even social problems of virtual community.
Reuters in Second Life, established news agency, became the real world and virtual world of information exchange places. It set up a special web page , post text, pictures, video and other forms of news coverage in addition to the players all kinds of news occurred in the virtual world, but also to the flawless look through the newspaper, the site of the players the real world of news reporting, but also readers outside the game understanding of the events in the game. In addition, players can also keep a specific handheld device to receive from the Reuters Second Life news segment.
commercial bone marrow has long been deep into the game, has become an important game for free to survive. Reuters is not the first person to eat crab, other than set up shop in this game, Toyota, Adidas, the more interesting is, Sun on the 12th of this month which was held in Second Life a virtual press conference, company executives for its second life as an interview, and of the press conference for the Sun provides a virtual meeting place for the IT media group Cnet, which prior to Reuters in Second Life established the headquarters. Then, after Reuters, . Although the virtual world of the game, but the player is real, this is a huge market, when large numbers of people put a lot of time on games, the game itself has a very high advertising value. The intervention of the media further accelerated between the real and the virtual world of information flows, creating new potential for wealth. the virtual world of a transaction, is likely to lead to real-world interest in a company, and among the events in the real world, but also virtual world will impact the business dealings.
Reuters and other have been or wish to enter the virtual world of media, made a most cost-effective trading. in the establishment of a network news organizations in the game, just register for free, buy the necessary virtual items, but this is a pilot initiative to attract both the virtual and real world perspective. as a Reuters editor in chief of the Office of Second Life, Adam Pasick that reported in the virtual world and the real world does not work much difference. Indeed, with the News Corp. acquisition of My Space transformation strategy that is different from the network game, the media business in the form and nature of change did not happen, but it can use the lowest cost and fastest way to reach a new depth a certain area of the economy.
This also caused another to think the game has a strong cohesive community seems to have become the new wealth of an exchange place. If the media and commercial advertising in the virtual world can a big success, then whether future online games could become a platform for integration of Internet service do? virtual goods transactions already has the characteristics of e-commerce, other services are also likely to go up the platform in the game to complete it

This article lists things like Second Life (Second life) and World of Warcraft (World of Warcraft) that massively multiplayer online role-playing games (MMORPGs) in the presentation of the new features. This article focuses on the game environment provided by the business opportunities and challenges, before we make any comment Please re-look at our understanding of the concept of the media.
1. the media is the business environment
with media and technology to constantly put our so-called re-definition of the concept. Once we accept the media, not just the fact that newspapers and radio and television, then the obvious like the game Second Life this can be added to the ranks of the media. The key difference between the old and new definition of traditional media is A service for business, new media tools which will include the formation of a business environment is no longer exists only as a medium.
2.
unlimited resources of such large-scale game can continue if attract more players to join then we have no reason to doubt that natural resources are not constrained the expansion of the world can achieve unlimited.
3.
the authenticity of the virtual economy is that Second Life's virtual economy booming there is real economic value of the most typical examples, especially the development of virtual wealth, has been in a virtual game several examples of real benefit, and such a key driver of the virtual economy of virtual wealth lies in the extension of the real world .
4. outdoor advertising to return to fashion
If you walk up the real world more secure, then we will probably have more outdoor ads. In this new world of Second Life
widely reported in the outdoors will be more interactive, such as we can implant a billboard in the link connected to the call center, or to billboards to accept customer orders directly, and we do not have to worry about these billboards will be animal or savage human intentional damage.
5.
web produced from the re-emergence makes the distance and position seem less important, because we flat graphics and text through the exchange and therefore does not exist if you can, and I have more a concept. The three-dimensional world, where your virtual character work in which to live again with a similar location in real life has meaning to you.
6. it becomes enriched in the game < br> Even if every day you spend only a short time in the game, but because you have chosen this time to spend in the virtual world and make it in the real world than to spend even more substantial
, the reason is the virtual everything in the world for you than the real world have more appeal. Some people watch TV, some
people in sports, while others used to stay at some of the singularity does not actually exist in the world. For many players, the game became the best choice to spend time
choice.
7. new and incredible market will
because the original composition of the New World and the world in different people's work be more flexible way, people's aspirations and needs of the potential scope and the real world very different from a lot of things can not be found in the real world equivalent. This means that with the birth of new things, new markets will be appears.
8. everyday folk to enjoy the service as to the bank or go to the supermarket
shopping tired of these customs in daily life in the virtual world works suddenly become interesting. to understand the subtleties of the companies can make their own products and shopping process becomes more interesting to attract more customers.
9. customer service once again become personal
as customers face to face communication services have been changed by the telephone and mail handling, even though the service change more rapidly and more readily available, but the service quality was declining. based on the virtual avatar make face to face customer service approach to customer service again.
10. God is still working (bug fixes and new versions )
games and virtual world developers are always concerned about the operation of this world, they will respond quickly to emergency situations, user groups can impose undue influence on developers to make some of the problems will not drag on for a long time to get solution.
11. all only just begun
massively multiplayer online games is only in its infancy, economic, political and cultural impact has only just appeared and remain in a small range. no matter of what will be, is of profound significance. The problem is, there will be many people indifferent to it all this development?
view if you have more order and I will welcome back into the subject in the collection. < br> [Zhuantie] Are you ready? virtual life is about to begin!
