Tokyo

Ultimately envisioning a museum of Japanese pop culture, Dentsu Tetsuya Mizuguchi, the creator of a Japanese advertising firm, plans to build a Virtual Tokyo in Second Life, reports 1UP.com.

Mizuguchi isn't planning an exact replica of the city. Instead, he hopes to capture its spirit - a more abstract pursuit that will involve a mishmash of pop culture artifacts unique to mainstream Japanese life.

He also plans to open a ski jump contest, using a ski slope that will be built into the center of Virtual Tokyo. Players will compete "based on longest distance, comedic performance, and so on."
