"Brad Oberwager appeared on the special SL18B episode of Lab Gab along with the Leadership Team on Monday 21st June 2021. This was the first time that Brad Oberwager (Oberwolf Linden) talked directly the the Second Life community. I thought it was a great show generally speaking and it was nice to hear about Brad’s plans for the future of Second Life. It was good to hear that Brad has gone in-world with his Oberwolf Linden account at least a few times and he does have alt accounts." Read more on the blog.

"Hey hey, I’ve been sick the past couple of days. I think I worried myself sick and also caught a summer cold. So I wasn’t able to do some of the neat ideas I had in mind for Vintage Fair and the final post I had in mind for Cyber Fair. " Read more on the blog.

"I was banging on David’s bedroom door, shouting at him to get out of bed because he was going to miss the best part of the day. “The early bird catches the worm,” I told him. “I’m not a bird,” he muttered. “Go on, we’ll go shopping,” I offered. “Ha, the never have anything in my sizes anyway,” he responded. He is right of course, very few clothing creators have ever bothered with the NX-Nardcotix David mesh body, but there just happens to be a 50% sale on at Tori Torricelli this weekend, so at the very least it was worth checking out."

I find it super hard to finish decorating any house in SL, but since I came back, I decided I was going to finally finish one and to celebrate the fact I actually did finish it, I decided to shoot a videooooooooo.

"Setting up a resort in the middle of a group of other sims can be challenging.  Why should people stay with you when they can travel to these other places anyway and tp home within seconds? One of SL's newest resorts, the Bonaire YanuYanu,  passes that question with flying colours in that it really works with and integrates its surroundings."

"...the world was a very different place when SL appeared. There was no Facebook, no iPhone nor Minecraft. In 2003, when Second Life was released, the general public met Safari web browser and Skype for the first time. It was also when Eve Online MMORPG was launched. Back then, SL was actually one of the most immersive experiences one could have in a computer generated 3D environment that was not exactly a game, in a traditional sense (even if in the early days of its conception, before its public release, what would come to be known as Second Life was more game-like than it is today)."
