BBC First Broadcast in Second Life (yawn)

The BBC show Money has done a piece on the Second Life economy and will broadcast it on tv and in-world on Friday, June 1 which represents their first in-world broadcast according to their press release here.

While I'm encouraged that the BBC continues to experiment, and that this story will probably be more 'serious' as it is on a business show versus the usual "joe is a (insert job here) by day, but by night he (insert shocking activities here)" the BBC could have been much more bold.

They could have created and broadcast the show in-world rather than flying to San Francisco to interview Linden Labs CEO for a start. It's not fair for me to comment further until I have seen it myself tomorrow so stay tuned...
