The average avatar consumes 1,752 kwh per year. The average citizen of Brazil consumes 1,884 kwh per year. Developing countries per capita consumption is 1,015 kwh. The average human on a world life basis, consumes 2,436 kwh per year. That means an avatar in second life uses about 3 quarters of the amount of energy/ electricity in year. The population of avatars is growing at a rate of 36% each month. Right now the population is approximately 10,527,717 which keeps growing. The amount of permanent residents in which second life defines them as “people who logged in at least once in the last 60 days” has grown to 518,524 people. The average age of an avatar is 3.6 months and the oldest living resident is 4 and a half years. The average time spent in-world of an avatar is about 40 hours per month. Some major crime categories in second life are push gun assaults, retail fraud, cyber-terrorism, and mafia racketeering. Total area of second life as of August 2007 was 83 square miles, which is also growing daily. There are about 16,908 landowners. The average price per square meter of Land is $6 Lindens. The exchange rate is L $309 to US $1. It is a free market economy and the monthly transaction volume in Lindens is $ 1.93 billion. ~~ There will be more info posted as soon as I find more.
