A new kid in town to rival Second Life?

News reaches me that SceneCaster has been launched.
Whilst not a true threat to Second Life in that it is not a true 3d Virtual World (is anyone else bemused by the concept of the co-joining of virtuality and truth?), it has got a lot of co-operative juice action from Facebook, Amazon, eBay and Flickr.
Says QJ.net, the MMORPG blog,
While it isn’t a virtual world in the way that Second Life is, SceneCaster will allow users to customize a virtual space for themselves and allow them an easy way to share media files as well as build an online community through its user-friendly interface.
It’s definitely easier to access and link your virtual space with SceneCaster’s new application since each scene created there is already embedded into a web page. Also, SceneCaster has tied itself to several big names in the online networks and e-commerce scene.
The application will be integrated with Google’s 3D Warehouse, which allows the user access to many 3D images to help customize their web space. SceneCaster has also enabled the incorporation e-commerce sites like eBay and Amazon, as well as other networks like Facebook and Flickr.
