Japanese Rock guitarist "Osama" Live in SecondLife!!!!!

On March 5, Japanese Rock guitarist "Osama" Live was held in Japanese SIM "GO GOing Ark" of the SecondLife.



Osama is a musician that translates into Japanese the famous tune of classical Rock such as Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple and The Rolling Stones. (By the way, "Osama" is a word to mean "King" in Japanese. )



His name and looks seem to joke.　But, his guitar technique is really splendid.

Please watch this YouTube movie.





It is the second that he holds a Live in SecondLife. But, he doesn't have SIM and a foothold in SecondLife.





When he holds Live , he cooperates with his fan and SecondLife users.




A visitor of 74 came for Live.　And Live was broadcasted in Stickam Japan, and several hundred people watched it.

I think that this is successful Live (Virtual)worldwide.

ntomo

Today, I introduce "ntomo".



ntomo is South Korean 3D VirtualWorld "PUPPYRED" that does localized for Japan.
This service is popular among the girls of the kindergarten~primary school in Korea. On the other hand, it is popular with housewives in Japan. Because the reason, the Japanese girl uses the mobile telephone than PC. And, the Japanese housewife spends most of day in a house.








ntomo user can have land called "minipark", and can custom put a virtualitem.





In addition, the user can do a custom of one's avatar.

ntomo have not UGC by the user such as SecondLife, but there is the casual that even the person who is not used to the VirtualWorld can easily operate.

In Japan, the VirtualWorld yet never spreads in comparison with Europe and America. I think, "casual VirtualWorld" such as ntomo should become the entrance.
