Snickers Snook created a interesting SL poll at the beginning of 2012 asking the SL community what they think the state of the SL economy will be like in 2012. The poll closed a few days ago and 66 residents voted altogether apparently. 🙂
Final poll results
- Better than 2011 – 20 votes (30%)
- Worse than 2011 – 18 votes (27%)
- About the same – 25 votes (37%)
- Don’t know – 3 votes (4%)
It’s interesting that most of the votes went towards “about the same” and not really towards “better than 2011”. I hope that the SL economy 2012 will be better than 2011 and things will pick up again. In the next few weeks the lab will release it’s Q4 SL economy results for 2011 which tell us how well Second Life performed in the final months of 2011.
