New Second Life Stats
I’m in Idaho at the moment and the big Second Life Community Convention is going on in San Francisco which I’m extremely bummed I’m missing.
But, I read a post from Giff at Electric Sheep with some very intersting new stats:
- SL sees around 150,000 hours of usage a day
- 4 million lines of script code are written every week
- 50% of new avatars beings created are from non-US countries
I love that this shows the growing global nature of Second Life and the fact of how much usage is going on every day. I’d love to see some stats on when the most active hours of the day are. I’m curious because my experience has been that starting around 11 pm EST things start getting busy every night, but that could just be the circles I travel in. I don’t know.
Lots of new faces in Second Life. LOTS of them corporations and name brands that you know. Toyota’s Scion is the latest one and there will be many more.

Hi C.C.
I ’scrape’ hourly and they are available raw at:

and yup, not surprisingly, peaks are 18:00-22:00 PDT (21-01 EST?)
Chromal keeps graphs at:

but he’s is re-factoring, I think, after changes last week

Slightly off-topic, but I hope you enjoyed your time here in Idaho. What part of the state were you in?
