We are planning a Cryptonomicon and The Diamond Age sims in a month or so to come online. We will also be building The Raft, with a scale model of the USS Enterprise (likely about 150 meters long, and will be the biggest vessel in SL). Our new sims are all named after libertarians, and expand The Street westward as we build our new continent of Ancapistan. btw: we are also looking for folks to help improve things and expand our themed offerings.

One of the neatest parts, to me, in the book was the CIC and how people were constantly recording and uploading content to the CIC in the hopes of getting paid for it. If you had a stringer kit for SL, like BlogHUD on crack, then you'd have something both branded AND powerful. Just a thought. Christopher S.

Torley posted on my blog that Oz Spade had done an implementation of the Black Sun awhile back. Someone want to build "The Raft" as a free fire zone? http://www.rikomatic.com/blog/2006/09/snow_crash_fina.html Yeah, I was pretty disappointed too.
