Accident Designs

Teens are proposing a unification of the Teen Grid and Main Grid. Meanwhile Linden Lab are implementing restrictions to unverified accounts. Will the teen grid and main grid ever be united?

To fully unite the grids the US law would have to change, so Linden Lab and companies wouldn’t be immediately sued, or Second Life would need to be released open source because an open source release wouldn’t comply to us law since you can’t define where it “exists”.

The change of US law is probably not going to happen anytime soon, however an open source release might not be so far of in the future.

The solution that could be implemented quite soon would be too allow everyone both teens and adults on to the pg rated servers. Teen servers could still exist here no adults would be allowed and mature servers would still exist here no teens would be allowed. That would make it possible for anyone to meet within second life and it would make it would make way for a united market.

This would be a step ahead however my goal is a space where every age is allowed everywhere that includes not only adults and teens but also the children.

Open source is the answer if web 2.0 is going to contain a 3. dimension.

If Second Life needs to evolve even further there is no way around Open Source. Therefore Linden Lab decided to release the Client Code and they are working on a release of the server code. Of course Accident Designs are looking forward to the release and we expect it will enable us to set up our own exclusive servers available for our customers.

Open source virtual worlds already exist but the release of the Second Life source code will definitely bring us closer to a 3d network accessible to the whole world as we know it with WWW.
