[The Second Life Economy in Q4 2010]

Thanks Rene and Shockwave.

As I read the links talking about the loss of third party ownership and increase in LL owned and abandoned land, I started wondering if my owning my half-Sim is like pre-paying rental on a deck chair on the Titanic. Unfortunately, my retail income from SL gives me nothing to dispell that feeling.

The missing statistic I  would most like to see is this: Of that flat-lined world size, what percentage of the total space is now owned by LInden Lab, i.e. "abandoned." Looking around various Sims, I see huge quantities of land now owned by LL with former structures carefully maintained to make the abandoned land look used.
