Jo Yardley's Second Life 
A suggested question for the next LabChat:
Ebbe; would you talk some about in-world building in Sansar. Will it be similar to prim building in SL? How so / how not? Will we be able to create and/or manipulate mesh directly? Will we be able to work with voxels? One of the aspects of Second Life I most value is that it is a creative sandbox, I hope Sansar will be the same only better.

I don’t think Ebbe will be doing another Labchat soon, each time he opens his mouth he loses 1000 Dollar and they aren’t Linden Dollars.
Saffia: Ebbe, people want to ask about tier and the big fees for tier. Can’t you make it a little less for them?
Ebbe: I must say that tier is Waaaayyyyy too expensive and we overcharge people on tier. As a company CEO I do not recommend that you buy our product from us as it is hugely expensive, hell you would have to be a nut to pay 300 Dollar a month for a sim.
Saffia: I see, interesting perspective I must say. Now could you tell us a bit more about Sansar and how you will monetize that platform?
Ebbe: Yes of course Saffia I will be glad to do this. Since we cannot charge huge tier fees in Sansar as we know our users hate to pay that we will just tax them to death. Tax on everything like the government does, it works for them so I figured it might just work for us.
Ebbe: I must say we will make land dirt cheap in Sansar so that people migrate from Second Life to get the cheap land but once they arrive we will just tax them instead. You see Saffia, at Linden Lab we are very smart we spend our days thinking about this stuff.
Saffia: But what about Second Life then? Will Second Life not suffer because of what you will be doing?
Ebbe: Hell yeah, but what are you gonne do about it? I mean Second Life can blow up, Sansar can blow up, they can both blow up who knows and even more important who cares.
Ebbe: I am firm to have Sansar open by the end of 2016 just in time before my contract term is up so that I can show the board I deliverd for what I was hired, so beats me when stuff blows up.
