Reuters' Second Life news page has an interview with Katherine Berry, a 15 year old British girl who has coded a Second Life web browser viewer - apparently she coded all 2000+ lines of it in a weekend !! At the moment it's fairly limited in that you cannot walk around or teleport, but the fact that she has created a client which can connect to the Second Life Grid and allow chat and IM is a great first step to a fully working viewer which will remove the need for a large client download. And all this from a 15 year old - sickening !!!
NB. When I tried, I could not connect to the viewer as it looks like Katherine's server is being hammered by all the people wanting to try it - I'll let you know when I've had a go though !
