First Saturday: Avatar Pride Parade

  First Saturday! CIRCUIT LA CORSE, MEEWALH SIM, SECOND LIFE MAINLAND, 5 January – The growing “army” of avatars among us represent a new class of identity, or virtual identity.

Burn2 Campsite

You can’t say a bad word about Burning Life ’09, and indeed Silene’s Artist Camp was all about creating on-site, learning new things, and interacting with other artists. Still, I think the bulk of ’09 was an open house of amazing stuff to go look at. Perhaps in this tight-knit 6-region Burn2 we can interact more.

Gogbot!

Based on the, scandalous to some, idea that things in the universe don’t stay constant forever and that Homo sapiens don’t necessarily represent the ultimate intelligence in all of “creation,” we have the GOGBOT FESTIVAL celebrating the Technological Singularity this week in Enschede, The Netherlands.

Randomize, RIP

I’m sure it’s hard to be LL, because everything you do gets relentless hindsight complaints from your loyal, yet picky fans. So, of course, many have said much about the horror of the “rushed out” 1.23 Adult Verification SL Viewer. Amid all that hoopla, something most of us probably didn’t notice is that 1.23 removed [...]
