Run, don't walk to see Get A First Life, a parody of Second Life, the virtual world that's getting increasing attention from the business world. Look carefully: it's a bit X-rated.

Neville Hobson pointed us to this in his presentation at Melcrum's Social Media Forum here in London. According to Neville, the Second Life folks know about it. But they think it's funny and haven't asked to have it taken down.

Second Life vs My Real One


Ive getting over a bit of a head cold (read man flu), but this cheered me up.
Deborah Weil flagged this single-page parody of Second Life, Get A First Life.
Second Life - compare this page - is the virtual world that a handful…

Love this. Very funny.

Melcrum’s survey showed that the hype around big corporates and Second Life is well, hype. 73% of the 2,112 respondents said that they had no plans for virtual worlds like Second Life. But then you could say 27% did, so read into it what you will.
