Along the lines of Second Life, Habbo Hotel and the to-date vaporware Sony Home, Google has launched a new service called Lively. It requires a small download and MSIE or Firefox browser. There's already a pile of fully 3D rooms. It has or will have hooks for facebook and myspace.
I liked this description of Lively from BuzzFeed: "Unlike Second Life, there’s no one, unified world — you create your own rooms, which can be embedded on your blog or tumblelog or whatever your [sic] into calling it these days — so it can be lonely, just like [your] real life." (added snarkiness mine)
