"...the world was a very different place when SL appeared. There was no Facebook, no iPhone nor Minecraft. In 2003, when Second Life was released, the general public met Safari web browser and Skype for the first time. It was also when Eve Online MMORPG was launched. Back then, SL was actually one of the most immersive experiences one could have in a computer generated 3D environment that was not exactly a game, in a traditional sense (even if in the early days of its conception, before its public release, what would come to be known as Second Life was more game-like than it is today)."
