Second Life in Japan

Apparently, Second Life is big in Japan.

A visit to the local bookstore came up with about 5 books (in Japanese) related to Second Life. These were either books introducing the online game, or those discussing the economy/business side in more detail.

At the local computer store, in the computer books section, there were about 5 more books on Second Life as well, different from those found at the local bookstore. That makes a total of about 10 books on Second Life, all in Japanese. I don't think there are that many English books on Second Life, even though Japanese may not make up the majority in the Second Life population.
