Linden Lab
Time: 1999
Place: San Francisco, California, United States
Details: In 1999, entrepreneur Philip Rosedale formed Linden Lab with an initial focus on the development of VR hardware. In its earliest form, the company struggled to produce a commercial version of "The Rig", which was realized in prototype form as a clunky steel contraption with several computer monitors that users could wear on their shoulders. The concept was later adapted into the personal computer-based, 3D virtual world program Second Life.
Best-effort ordering. Some events may appear out of order since many are only known to the year, but they are usually around the same period.
