Sony is delaying the launch of the Home online world service for its PlayStation 3 console. Originally slated for an autumn launch, Home is a virtual world in which owners of the PS3 create avatars and socialise with others. With the service, Sony hopes to cash in on the wave of interest in online communities that have made successes of websites such as Second Life, MySpace and Facebook.

Sony said Home would now be launched early in 2008.
