Meta-Mole is the first virtual worlds meta search engine. It is a comprehensive database of Virtual World environments. It allow to list and compare key data for major 2D and 3D environments. It was created by the Centre for Design in the Digital Economy (D-LAB) based within the University of Teesside’s Institute of Digital Innovation.

I tried, but only got result using the Advanced Search. You can search for features of  the virtual platforms,  see an interesting comparative matrix (no, not that one), and search the images and videos of each virtual platform.
