[Opensim-dev] Lively

[liu xiaolu]

The "slogan" of Lively(maybe not) -- "Take expression to the next dimension
with Lively".

After walking around in Lively,  What I feel is:
yes, they just add a dimension, Lively still remains a 3D("next dimension")
SNS, like secondlife.

As far as Lively looks like a closed service, No matter its client is
browser-based
or a standalone application, it won't change anything.

+n on "I think "grid jump" is an important feature".
