Second Life has now hit 1,000,000 residents. The news of the one millionth person in that virtual world created excitement on the Second Life blog and at Linden Labs.

Linden Lab says, "Second Life is growing because together we are all building content, welcoming new people, expanding the community, and adding new capabilities to the system. It is amazing to be a part of such an experience - I can't possibly imagine any job I'd more love coming to every day. We're trying hard to find a moment here at the office to celebrate..."

The news generated a great deal of press for Second Labs and may slow things down for a while as a the persistent online world is flooded with curious noobs.
