Do you live in more than one virtual world?

Do you live in more than one virtual world? Are you carrying on businesses in multiple worlds at the same time? Which worlds are you in? I'd like to start a discussion to try to understand better how many of us live in one single world at the time or live in the middle of multiple worlds and like to carry on cross-worlds activities.
Usually for mmorpg is seems more normal for people to live in a single world at the time; I think it may be pretty different with social virtual worlds. I'm involved at the same time with Second Life and There, sometimes Kaneva, World of Warcraft and Guild Wars. What about you?

Actually I have been dreaming about a global avatar ID that would allow me to access any world but we are far from it. You may look up my thoughts on this here; ▶ Reply to This

Although, admittadly, by business requires in depth knowledge about the platforms but not constant immersion. It is certainly getting hard to follow though!; ▶ Reply to This

I find that I usually choose one that is most suited for me,
and end up visiting there most often.
A persistent avatar throughout any web3d world would be very
convenient and useful.; ▶ Reply to This

but music is not! I guess before judging it I've to find the right place first, I'm quite obsessed and picky about music ;-) btw, haven't find you today, I'll try again to look for you next time; ▶ Reply to This

Not so much real hard metal/punk or hardcore hip/hop . I'm piccky about music too, but Vside just has a very good strong basic formula.. see you!; ▶ Reply to This
