I guess everyone knew this would happen eventually. It didn't even take 24 hours:

I became aware of this when logging into Metropolis for testing. They had a link to this article on the Metro login page.

It's on the Kitely Blog and forums with lots of responses in the forums. Doubt anyone told her.

Hi everyone,

There is a difference between stating the private beta exists and starting to write reviews about it and how well it functions. You can mention it exists (that cat is out of the bag) but please DO NOT start writing reviews and in no way start posting pictures of the process. This is a private beta for a reason. If the system was at the state it could be shared with everyone then we wouldn't need the beta and would just release this feature now.

Maria did not need anyone to tell her. She would have seen the blog announcement in her feed reader, as I did. A little preliminary publicity like that does not hurt. Gets a little more visibility for the upcoming public release. Maybe gets more content creators thinking about using the Kitely market.

The discussion on that blog post has been mostly positive up to now, which could be very helpful.

I honestly had no idea this was supposed to be secret! I have Google Alerts up on anything remotely OpenSim related, and subscribe to the Kitely announcements, and this was HUGE news, and I didn't even consider not doing a story.

And since they'd already run an announcement about it, it would have been weird not to do a story, especially about something of such potential major impact.

Every second-tier commercial grid that's trying to make a case for remaining closed because it offers premium content is going to see its business proposition blown right out the window.
