Stroker! We Hardly Knew Ye!

Stroker Serpentine's world-famous 'Amsterdam' sim has apparently sold for $50,000 on eBay to an unnamed Dutch entrepreneur.

Stroker -- who goes by the name Kevin Alderman in RL -- says he sold the sim to concentrate on building a newer, larger, more ambitious and (dare we say it?) immersive adult business in Second Life. Our friend Mitch Wagner (who goes by the name Ziggy Figaro in SL) has the whole scoop here.

Amsterdam -- as most of the readers of this column know, and as a group of hapless programmers at SD West who I led through the sim to demonstrate v-commerce last Wednesday quickly found out -- is one of SL's great wellsprings of kinky, alpha-tex'd lingerie and a center of the inworld (cough) "service economy."
