I was interested in hearing what Mitch Kapor has to say about Second Life being a "disruptive technology," but his closing keynote at the SL5B event couldn't be accessed, thanks to the platform's well-known scaling problems:

Update 2:25 pm (eastern): Audio from the keynote was supposed to be posted, but the ShoutCast link says the "server is currently down."

More news, commentary, and predictions from The Industry Standard:

Prediction: Apple opens a store in Second Life
Prediction: Second Life usage will not break 40 million user hours per month by the end of 2008
