Google launched its Virtual World ‘Lively’ last month with a hope of exploring new ways in the Web traits. With an abrupt growth in the number of 3D worlds, it was expected that the Internet Giant will definitely make the mark by attracting millions of users and fans. But the report by Economist reveals that it has flopped badly and despite of ‘Google’ name and fame in the Internet niche, it was unable to achieve public confidence and sizable User base like its competitors such as Second Life and Vivaty.
Google Lively was expected to be of great potential. It doesn’t require any kind of complex software installations like World of Warcraft and is simple and efficient to bring life to the Virtual World. It only needs a plug-in installation to get started and thus users can enter any of the available 3- D chat rooms. The whole idea seems to revolved around the ‘simplicity’ of the Virtual world product. But the current statistics and surveys shows that peoples are highly disliking it and its dump with the negative comments and reviews.
