The post on nwn.blogs talked about some unusual screenshots in Second life.

As the labor union strike finally came to a close a couple hours ago, protest leader (and Italian IBM staffer) Barillo Kohnke looked out over the crowd of several dozen still there at the IBM Italia region, and declared victory:

"A BIG SUCCESS !!! THANKS TO ALL," he shouted. "AFTER 12 HOURS THE PROTEST IS FINISHING... LET?S SEE THE REACTIONS OF IBM TOMORROW.  PLEASE STAY REGISTERED IN THE PROTEST MAILING LIST TO BE UPDATED."

Is it interesting? It appears to be a protest against IBM´s cutting of the wages of some of it´s Italian workers. Maybe, because this event happened in SL, it´s a bit difficult to tell what the hell it was actually about.
