Oh yes, yes.

This picture was begining to show itself more than a year ago. it was a fuzzy, out-of-focus picture back in early to mid 2007, but the picture was definately there.

And now as our eyes clear and the picture comes into focus... we all who had that nigly feeling all along feel the bittersweet vindication: Linden Lab is pushing Second Life (more specifically: the technology) toward corporate/commercial uses.

Perhaps not the Second Life Agni grid per se, but definately leveraging what is already here and now, to build-out those VPGs (Virtual Private Grids, anyone, ala Virtual Private Networks?)

Of course it's easy to look back at all of your reports and other reports and blogger opinions and compress them into a contiguous roll of information to see a clear and concise raodmap in progress.

it also makes clear why Linden lab all but abandons the blog. It all comes down to a public perception and identity impression for all those potential customers the soon-to-be-hired outside-sales staff will be contending with.
