"Fictional Characters Get Virtual Lives, Too" by Bill Carter

The article, "Fictional Characters Get Virtual Lives, Too," really shows what a huge sensation SecondLife has become. CBS is using an entire CSI:NY episode to show their main character trapped in a virtual world and further giving viewers the chance to go online and play in a SecondLife game related to that episode. Sounds to me like SecondLife is sweeping the nation. Apparently computer gaming is a popular American pastime and major corporations like CBS are doing their best to incorporate the use of technology to attract and capture new viewers.
