Amsterdam, one of the landmark business in Second life, modeled on the city’s red light district, and specializing in adult content, was sold for $50,000.
The previous owner, whose avatar is called “Stroker Serpentine”, says he sold the iconic virtual destination “to focus on a new, bigger adult business”. Little is known about the city’s new custodian, except that he is — perhaps appropriately — from the Netherlands.
Amsterdam is one of the first places that most first-time players visit in Second Life, mostly due to the ‘titillation factor’.
InformationWeek has more on this titilating development.
