It's Friday the 13th: Dream of Virtual Worlds

This article highlights the creative lead that Nintendo has taken in the evolution of gaming, but one thing that struck me about the story was that the fact that Sony is launching a virtual world of the likes of Second Life:

"Called 'Home,' the service will let users create their own digital likeness, called an avatar, then mingle online with other gamers."

Microsoft, Sony to play Nintendo's game

So this Friday the 13th, don't have nightmares about Jason or Freddy - instead dream of the next few decades spent folicking in cyberspace interacting with people from around the globe.
