Now the far greater concern is what this will mean for virtual currencies in China. (Currently about 2 yuan each.) Exchange QQ to L$ QQ coin-> 2 yuan -> 26 US cents -> 70.2 L$ per QQ coin (at 270L$ per US dollar). So about 1.4 coins per 100 Lindens. This was news last week when the story broke.

There was a New York Times article a few months back as well, but other than that, hardly anyone seems to have noticed. QQ is actually the largest social network in the world. Bigger than MySpace, Friendster, LinkedIn, Mixi, Facebook (and Second Life) put together. QQ isn't a full-fledged virtual world, but you can make a pretty nice avatar, and with services like HiPiHi coming to the Chinese market soon, Second Life could easily be eclipsed in size. We all need to remember that the future of social networking, virtual worlds, and online gaming is a very international future, and to ignore that is to ignore the potential of new media as a global engine of change.
