By Adam Pasick"LONDON (Reuters) - Philip Rosedale and his team at Linden Lab have almost godlike powers in Second Life, the virtual world they created, powers that Alan Greenspan could only have dreamed of when he chaired the U.S. central bank.
But they have much the same job managing its economy.
Second Life is an online, 3D world with a thriving business sector and a currency that can be exchanged for U.S. dollars, effectively making it a real currency in its own right. Up to 135.5 million Linden dollars, worth about $500,000, changes hands every day among its 900,000 registered users. "
