Linden Lab created the memorable virtual world Second Life in 2003, and it’s still going today. But even as Linden Lab tries to create its Sansar virtual spaces for VR, another rival has emerged to compete to be the place for do-it-yourself creators in VR.

Sinespace is billing itself as a massively multiplayer online sandbox world in VR, and the company is launching what it calls a Certified Creators program to try to boost the creation of user-generated content in Sinespace. It hopes that it can stand out from others because its technology won’t be “pinned in time,” but rather will change with the times as graphics and other technologies move forward.
