Second Life, the acclaimed 3D digital world created by Linden Lab, goes global with Version 1.6, providing more access, more tools and more entertainment opportunities for the community….see highlights below:

• International Keyboard Support, including Asian character sets, enables Second Life’s international audience to communicate in their own language.
• New in-world tools streamline and simplify the 3D design process.
• In-world video streaming offers the potential for the first Second Life Independent Film Festival, letting residents screen their original movies to an ever-expanding audience

And, all these innovations arrive in time for the start of Second Life’s 2nd Annual Game Developer’s Competition – hosted by greats from the gaming world – making it easier for Second Life’s entire user base to participate and develop inventive new games.
