\"Second<\/a><\/p>\n

The arrival of Ebbe Altberg has already led to the end of one Second Life character on Twitter, with @SecondLie<\/a> announcing his retirement in an afternoon\/evening of excitement, hope, despair, bewilderment and surprise at the arrival of Ebbe Altberg as new CEO of Linden Lab.<\/p>\n

The unexpected turn of events threatened to overshadow the optimism about the arrival of the new CEO, with fans of @SecondLie expressing shock at his retirement. Lie (real name SecondLie) refused to answer any further questions, but did point reporters, observers, bloggers and Lindens in the direction of a new kid on the twitter block, @RebbeAltberg.<\/a><\/p>\n

However don’t shed too many tears, because the new guy on the block looks to have great potential, exemplified her by this exchange with Botgirl Questi …. I hope this embed malarkey works with parent tweets!<\/p>\n

@RebbeAltberg<\/a> You used to work at Yahoo!, right? Any chance you\u2019re going to make a deal with them like Cloud Party?<\/p>\n
