By Avatar JayR Cela

    Yesterday the Lab announced that very soon SL will be an available download on the very popular gaming network Steam.

    Is this a good idea ?

    I do not see how it can possibly hurt, the potential for new customer's, and future budding in-world game developers is pretty massive. That coupled with some new improvement's planned for the graphic's rendering engine should start to make SL an interesting  social network again.

    Inara Pey's excellent article explain's the graphic engine overhaul, much better than I can.
