Now this is just too deliciously geeky for words. Vodafone has launched a new service called InsideOut that allows you to take a real mobile in the real world and call or message someone using a virtual one in Second Life, which if it continues to grow and absorb the world at the rate that it is just now will soon have to be re-named First Life.
Texts cost L$300 (which is apparently somewhere around $1) and voice calls cost L$300 per minute which isn’t exactly cheap but hey, that’s the price of living out a full blown Matrix fantasy.
The service will continue to run in beta form until the end of November so for the meantime it’s free to try. We have dibs on pretending to be Neo, you can be Morpheus.
