A Window on the Teen Grid

Teens pour into SL’s new “Teen Grid”
As reported by Hammie Linden in New World Notes, the Second Life Teen Grid has its first blog, called Second Age, under he stewardship of Aesop Thatch, who is a fine writer btw. Early stories cover the clubs, a recent influx of noobs, and of course the Young Pioneers of the Feted Inner Core.

I’m stupefied that the Lindens named the 5 sims of the Teen Grid after its first five residents. I don’t think they’re intentionally trying to create a Teen Inner Core. It just seems that’s naturally how their brains work. Early adopter = 733t = honored entity. But that attitude pervades the Internet, it’s not just here.

*coughs* Walker, I believe you mean “1337″ instead of “733t,” but those of us who speak 1337sp34k will forgive you this time
