Virtual Terrorists Bomb ABC Island

The Australian Broadcasting Corporation Sponsored Island on Second Life has been hit by a terrorist attack. The island, promoting the laid back Aussie way of life and all the good things that an Australian public broadcaster can do for you and the third most visited island on Second Life was obliterated by some mean spirited hackers. Virtual repairs are underway. It is not known whether any virtual lives were lost.

"It is not known whether any virtual lives were lost."

Or whether virtually anyone cares?

Apparently Second Digital have the power of a virtual god and have rolled back the island to its pre bombing Ozzieness. I think virtual lives are a step down from blogging. I like interacting with humans.

Is that anywhere near Kangaroo Island or Lord Howe Island, Colin?

I don't know James, but I think it is all rather silly. I was amazed how many people participate in Second Life. Millions. There is a whole group of people trying to repair a virtual island. Second Lifers get a real life.

I almost never leave comments, but after reading through a few of the comments here "Virtual Terrorists Bomb ABC Island".
I do have a few questions for you if it's okay. Could it be only me or do some of these comments appear like they are written by brain dead individuals? :-P And, if you are posting at additional social sites, I'd like to follow everything
fresh you have to post. Would you make a list of all of all
your public sites like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?
