Several weeks ago I began to investigate the virtual world of Gaia Online when I was caught off guard by one of their ads. The ad stated that you could 'watch' the Matrix movie - online - for free - on demand - with others - in their virtual world.
Now this virtual world is completely internet based... no aps to download, no real learning curve. Definitely a different experience for me, coming from Second Life. But I was so interested because, well... the one thing I'm always saying to my friends as we sit on Second Life while watching TV in real life is: "I wish we had TV in SL." (My educational buddies are going to kill me for saying that.)
But isn't that what's coming? Isn't that where the Mac TV went wrong?! Where's my chat on TV?! I want to chat with my friends while watching movies or sports or whatever!
Anyways, here are a couple of screenshots... Besides the 'sponsored' content that Sony Pictures has provided for you to watch the makers of Gaia also have user uploaded content. This means Family Guy, Clerks 2 (full movie) and a lot more. I'm sure someone somewhere is cracking down on this and it may not go on much longer... but for now. It's one of the only reasons I've seen to even venture into Gaia Online.
