Lively - Google's answer to "Second Life"

Monday, 14 July 2008

Google is in news again! This time this internet giant comes out with an amazing plan, that is, to have an online 3D social arena which its going to call as Lively. It takes on second life, however, wants it to be a part of your first life. Just like Second life requires users to download a particular software from internet and then through that log into the 3D arena, Google's "lively" would also require a similar process. Users can used Firefox or IE to enter into the graphics world which means only windows would be supporting lively.

Engineering manager for this project, Niniane Wang said, ""Lively" is integrated with the world wide web and not a different destination. Its just an effort to add it to your existing life". There are several ways of integrating with the world wide web like piping the content hosted somewhere else on the net which includes photos or videos, or embeding lively profile into a blog, or using the google's widgets,or on facebook pages now and myspace pages later, plus you have single web address that you can send to your friends asking them to join it.

Lively can be used to run your imagination wild. You can do a lot of things using lively like creating deseart islands, water, parks or you can also have combination of many things. Its actually going to make your imagination go wild. The whole idea behind creating "Lively" is give a new dimension to the system of social networking on internet. This is a next generation application that would replace simple emoticons. The usage might be a little tough initially, especialy for the people who are new to this concept. However, with time, one can easily master over this and use it effectively. The demo version of lively had many bugs and problems. Hopefully they would be resolved before releasing it.

"Lively" is a step further into social networking. Although it cannot be programmed by others, it has easy facilities in it. Atleast the first version will not have the option to programm it. Since the first release is going to be only for windows platform based computers, Wang said there is a serious consideration to have MAC enabled version too. Well google, just like always, hopefully "lively" too turns out to be a great tool!
