== Introduction ==
== A brief history of virtual worlds ==
* <<<The only thing I can bring to this section is a small acquaintance since 1996 with what became ActiveWorlds, a decade of excessive online gaming in 3 major MMOs, and 5 years of Second Life + a little Opensim.  I don't consider this a usable background for writing even a brief history of VWs. Morg>>>
== The Second Life virtual world model ==
* <<<Intro to Linden Lab and the rise of SL>>>
* <<<Paragraph on the SL grid/simulator/client model>>>
