Talk about a Tipping Point.
According to 3pointD.com, there is a group of Amazonians in Second Life building a bridge between Amazon Web services and Second Life so you can go into Second Life and actually try things on there and buy them.

It’s not clear how far along the effort is or how much official support it has in the company ([see below], Vogels was speaking in response to a question from the audience), but it is clear that people at major Web-based retailers and eCommerce portals have begun to look at SL as a commercial platform. Watch out, SLBoutique? Time will tell. Stay tuned for more reports.
