Move over Second Life, there´s a new 3D virtual web space in town which is trying to make a name for itself in the online community. SceneCaster is a company that has a created a 3D scene creation application that integrates itself with many other web-based apps and online accounts.

SceneCaster is aimed at Second Life. But it gets rid of some of the real negatives that Second Life has. What are those negatives?

The answers are as below:

1. You can´t get more than about 80 people into any one space. This makes it very tough to use Second Life for commercial experiences. SceneCaster doesnĄ¯t have those limitations.

2. You can´t embed Second Life onto Web pages or Facebook profiles. SceneCaster lets you do just that, which makes it far easier to navigate around for novices.

3. SecondLife isn´t well integrated into other Web stores of 3D objects. SceneCaster integrates Google´s 3D Warehouse.

4. Kids are kept out of the main grid in Second Life where on SceneCaster each scene is controlled by the owner. So my scenes will allow kids in and others might have different rules.

5. Because each scene is embeded into a Web page we can link to scenes a lot easier than we can link to them on Second Life.

What doesn´t it do that Second Life will? It isn´t a complete world the way Second Life is, although that world gets people lost which causes high churn rates of people who try it for a while and get bored and leave before discovering that there´s a world that might keep their attention.
