In the virtual world of Second Life, different users are actually divided into grids. Developer Linden Lab was wise enough to do this because it provides protection for the younger users. With all the attacks happening inside the game, we definitely wouldn't want our teens smeared with goo, right?

Anyway, initial reactions to the Teen Grid were somewhat not favorable as cynics argued that attackers can always pose as teenagers themselves. As much as they have a point, it is amazing to know that the Teen Grid has taken a culture of its own, and is alive and vibrant. Just a couple of days ago, the community development team came up with a list of things to expect from the said grid.

Included in that list is the Global Kids island that teaches teen residents regarding world and social issues. True enough, Global Kids just published their first comic book about their first virtual summer camp that happened in the summer of 2006. The actual comics is 12 pages long and was created using photos from the program along with excerpts from the public chat logs.
