Just wanted to second OO's comments. I concur that this is a great step towards easing the newbie experience. The basic mode shows great promise. I too would like to see more on this subject.

It's awesome. I feel this is a great idea that will work well for a lots of people and will make the first approach with SL easier. It took me by surprise, so I guess I must have missed some conversations about it. Where can I find more details about how it got designed? An approximative reference to subject of mailing list discussions or wiki pages would be enough. If you didn't do it yet, try Basic Mode by choosing it at Login screen.
