Second Life cube? Viral marketing?
Posted by Kerri on September 22nd, 2007
Upon leaving my house this morning I found this white plastic cube (click the thumbnail for a bigger picture) sitting next to the door on the window ledge. Anyone have ANY idea what it is? Clearly I’m overreacting but I’ve always wanted to be a part of a viral marketing thing.
It has two circular batteries inside and an on and off switch at the bottom - I haven’t found any mention of this from a google search and have no idea what it does.
Anyone seen this before? or even read anything about it? I sure hope it’s not a bomb of some kind!
I was thinking at the time it was some sort of GPS device which would be pretty cool but after finding nothing online I now think it actually doesn’t do anything.

I read about this cube last year, I searched and found the site I originally read about it on:

Quote:While we were at Linden Lab, we saw a variety of different shirts that people were wearing, including one with a furry avatar head on it. When we left, we got a cube that glows that had the words on it “It all starts with a cube”, a shirt that said the same thing, and a few of their business cards. Their business cards are really small and have a picture of their avatar on the back. Eric’s was a cool 3D animated postcard like business card that shows a shootout from his movie when you tilt it. The tour was really fun, and I learned a few new things while I was there.
I’m afraid to say, but it is just a glowing light.
