"We've got opinions on Google's new Lively virtual world service, and doubtless you have too. But so do some of the key players in the virtual worlds industry, two of whom have just strung their thoughts together on their personal blogs. Ex Linden Labber Cory Ondrejka (now at EMI) and Electric Sheep Company CEO Sibley Verbeck have both broadly welcomed Google's full-scale entry into the market, but with reservations / qualifications showing they're not jumping onto the hype bandwagon surrounding Lively...."

Virtual Worlds News: Feature: Lively - Google's Contribution to the 3D Social Web?
Virtual Worlds News: Feature: Lively - Google's Contribution to the 3D Social Web?
Today Google announced Lively, a browser-based virtual environment that will tie in to social networks like Facebook, OpenSocial, and MySpace, as well as Google's other products like YouTube and Picasa. Lively, an evolving product out of Google Labs, may not be the massive, Google Earth-style environment that some imagined when rumors surfaced that Google was testing a virtual world at ASU. It is, though, still Google. And that counts for a lot. For Mel Guymon, Google's Head of 3D Operations (and former There.com developer and IMVU Co-Founder), Google has three advantages.
"One is just Google’s reach," Guymon told Virtual Worlds News. "Google making a play validates the space like no one else. We’re basically saying this is a real space and everyone is doing this. Two, while the engineering is a small group of really talented folks, we made a huge investment of this. We’re going to launch with 8 completely different avatars. We’ve got 2 or 3 times that that we’re going to launch over time. The investment and polish to make that content, I just haven’t seen elsewhere. I’m very pleased they allowed us to do that. Third, the implementation of it takes the best of the space, rich avatars and a large catalog of virtual goods, which by the way is free, and have it be a part of your existing social network, which is the big wave right now. That’s really the silver bullet....."
