HipiHi = Chinese Second Life?
Aggregated Source: Virtual ChinaSecond Life has no Chinese port yet. Welcome to HipiHi, a China-produced and Chinese language version of Second Life.
There's been some buzz about it over at Second Life Insider, and at various blogs in Virtual China: LaoBai has written a post about it, and a Chinese blogger who reports heavily on Second Life was hired by them just recently.
Screenshots and a demo clip (where you can watch the female commentator's avatar change into a more provocative outfit as her first task, get it here) reveal a rather unoriginal take on Second Life, though their website claims that they will later provide Flash & cell phone interfaces to the virtual world.
They're still in private beta right now, so there is time yet for them to define themselves as merely more than a "Chinese Second Life."
They're hiring too, in Beijing, if you're interested.
