If there is one things the SL Views showed me is the fact that LL isn't looking for advise, they're just looking for support. In the end it's their platform so they do whatever they want and we as users have the option to leave if we don't feel comfortable with the direction LL is taken us. Needless to say it would affect LL if too many of us leave. Because of that reason, I do feel it is important that we as users are very vocal to keep LL in touch with reality and I'm a bit disappointed that LL doesn't seem to agree with that. LOL - that's probably the reason why they never respond to me! Robin ... where are you?

I truly loved this song and the video. LOL, not sure if it deserved this many comments though but hey ... I guess it shows that this is THE perfect song to advertise Second Life since it makes people talk! hehe

For those not familiar with Second Life, this is definitely an event you should check out. It will give a really good idea how a virtual world can truly make a difference in the real world as well!

As I always say, the question isn't "What can I do in Second Life", the question is "What can't I do in Second Life". Second Life is whatever you want it to be, that's why it's called Second Life since that isn't always possible in First Life!

BTW - kuddos for the article!

Wow, that is pretty neat. This means I can finally update those scripts that constantly check if there is an update on my own server available. Dang this truly makes things super easy... NICE! Thanks for sharing :)

I don't it - what is the sense of LL creating a second viewer? Are you sure Tateru the goal isn't for this to become the official SL viewer once all the bugs are worked out?

Some long overdue minor changes. LL, let's not call this 2.0 - the changes are simply not drastic enough to earn a 2!

LOL, thanks for the article Tateru, I've always wondered how much people were making from camping in SL...

If companies like Blizard and EA can't win the war against bots with their MMORPGs, how would a company like Linden Lab (where it's way easier to create a bot program) stand a chance? Sadly enough it's without any doubt a war they'll loose. The only way to address the issue is to change the ranking mechanism...

What's there to do in Second Life? The answer is simple ... what isn't there to do in Second Life!? Second Life can be whatever you want it to be. It's definitely a world for creative people.

So is Second Life all about Sex as Jay believes it is? If you're looking for sex, you're most definitely going to find this in Second Life which is kinda logic. It's popular on the web so why wouldn't it be popular on Second Life?

So what else is there to do then? Let's start of with a little example. Just over the weekend another event called BLUES FOR AUTISM ended and raised over L$1,500,000 (about $6000). Not bad for a "dead" platform huh?

To me Live Concerts and events like this are what makes this platform so unique. Others use Second Life to play games, shop, party, build, explore creations of others, to attend a play, watch a movie, follow a course... Just the other day somebody was telling me that they were learning French in Second Life. How neat is that?

For those who think it's just a glorified chat room, let me tell you this. Sure, in theory you're right, but what if I tell you that 95% of the time I spent in Second Life I don't talk to anybody? How is that possible? Again, Second Life can be whatever you want it to be. To you it might be just a place to chat with people, to me it's a place to build, to script, to create...
