SL gets vocal
February 27, 2007
Linden Lab have announced a road map for integration of voice capability into SL. Limited beta-testing is on the horizon.
The changes to the SL dynamic with voice capability are potentially enormous. Some individuals will be attracted to SL with the added capability, others (including current users) may actually be repelled by it.
There’s also the obvious issue of bandwidth and lag - will it just make the whole experience even more frustrating in the short term?
