How does online time differ from ffline? You can grow up online in a few weeks, virtually. But – in virtual reality – teenagers can lead teams, creating real relationships and earn real money, notes Cory.

I would add, The Net has made it possible for the little guy to start a business with almost no capital and no resources. But, as was visible last week at Web 2.0, many of these companies are "body-part” companies, designed to be grafted onto, say, Google or Yahoo!. They sell functions, not solutions, and they often lack seasoned management.. But perhaps the Net is offering a solution to this challenge, too: a cohort of seasoned managers, used to organizing teams, making decisions, setting and meeting goals online. The old computer games taught physical skills; the new massively multiplayer online games teach social and managerial skills. (They also teach some people to be good followers, another useful skill.)
