The waiting is over!
That diligent watcher of all things Oz, our friend Lowell Cremorne at SLOZ reports that Project Outback, the highly hyped and tremendously touted virtual world competitor has bit the big one, gone belly up, and is no more.
Check out Cremorne's post on the incident, and hang your heads for a moment for the passing of another startup project. The majority of MMO's/virtual worlds that have been started in the last ten years have never made it as far as an alpha, let alone a beta. At any one time there are generally forty or fifty in development. Of those, perhaps three will make it to launch. All that work and all those dreams are lost.
We might have problems of our own, but at least Second Life is here.
