Posted at 18:40 | | 0 Comments | View blog reactions

VegaArtists such as Duran Duran or Suzanne Vega have started giving real concerts in Second Life. Artists create themselves avatars and use streaming capabilities of Second Life to perform in front of some of the 400 000 membres of Second Life. This august 3rd, Suzanne Vega was the first major league artist to hold a live concert (see it on YouTube) in the game and broadcasted live on radio. Somebody was controlling her avatar as she sang. Duran Duran will host its own concert on its own island at the end of the month. Just today there were more than 10 live concerts planned in Second Life. source: Wired.

About

Welcome to my blog. Based in San Francisco, I am an entrepreneur and a blogger. I just started my fifth startup, Seesmic, a community driven video social software. Here is what TechCrunch says about it.

I am blogging every day a video on loic.tv about (almost) everything I do as I start Seesmic, I also constantly post short thoughts to twitter and often my pictures on Flickr.

I also organize every year in Paris the conference LeWeb3 that gathers more than a thousand bloggers and entrepreneurs from 40 countries on Dec 11 and 12.

If you would like to learn more, here is a bio, my LinkedIn profile, my wikipedia pages in english and french. Sometimes they are subject to changes that do not always reflect what I consider the truth but that is the principle.
