Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash has been hugely influential in the development of Second Life and other virtual worlds and we are proud to bring this book inworld, and offer it for RL reading.

and the Street is always garish and brilliant, like Las Vegas freed from constraints of physics and finance...
It is a hundred meters wide, with a narrow monorail track running down the middle. The monorail is a free piece of public utility software that enables users to change their location on the Street rapidly and smoothly. A lot of people just ride back and forth, looking at the sights. When Hiro first saw this place, ten years ago, the monorail hadn't been written yet; he and his buddies had to write car and motorcycle software in order to get around. They would take their software out and race it in the black desert of the electronic night.
