If you're an Australian, you know the ABC's (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) program, Four Corners. You probably nod and look thoughtful thinking of the in-depth coverage of important and sensitive issues covered by this long-running Australian icon.
If you're anything like me, though, that's probably tempered by some cringing at the pieces by Ticky Fullerton -- to be honest, I mostly laugh, but I do rather feel sorry for the people and organisations she covers. Four Corners is airing a piece by Fullerton on Second Life this coming Monday.
Fullerton's lined up a few people, such as Philip Rosedale, Ed Castronova (whose name apparently she has a little trouble getting right), Clay Shirky, Veronica Brown, Stroker Serpentine, Julian Dibbell, and Luke Connell in what promises to be both "skeptical" and "humorous".
If Fullerton's general take on things is something you enjoy, by all means tune into Four Corners, on Monday at 8:30pm (Australian Eastern Time) and relax and enjoy the show.
1. As it turned out, the program was excellent. Ms Fullerton did a damn fine job on it.
