Analyst predicts 'virtual marriages' by 2015 - Computerworld
According to this article it is predicted that people will marry exclusively in Virtual worlds such as SecondLife. And why not? Second Life is based around owning property, and surely people can co-habitate and develop their land? And if so, they should probably get 50% each of their virtual investment. These ideas are on the back of other predictions about just how long people might spend on virtual activities that would typically be performed in the real world. I would say lots.
