[Getting Immersed in Second Life]

@rodvic

LOL,  it's good to know that the new CEO puts his pants on one leg at a time, just like the rest of us.  Or I should say, since this is SL,  the new CEO puts his pants on both legs at once, just like the rest of us!

[Second Life Story in HBO Documentary this Valentine’s Day]

I hope this show won't be anything like the "Life 2.0" documentary,  those of you who have seen that will know what I mean.   It was aired at the SLCC convention last year.   That film was not flattering to SL.   Has anyone seen a preview of "When Strangers Click" ?   Be prepared for disappointment,   documentary film-makers tend  to play up the negative, controversial aspects of their topic.  I haven't seen his film "FOOD, inc." but am looking at the trailer now and I can see that Robert Kenner is a propagandist,  so don't expect a fair and balanced portrayal of SL from this director.

Sorry for being cynical ... and I know I should not pre-judge something I have not even seen .. but after my disappointment with "Life 2.0" I am wary of any documentary about SL.

Hey Rod ... I think it's about time for you to break radio silence now.   I'm a big fan of SL and not too disturbed about how LL is managed,  but even I'm beginning to wonder why we haven't heard from you in almost 2 weeks.  A blog entry every couple of days would be reassuring!

Perhaps we need to form an SL Chamber of Commerce,  similar to real world Cof C ?

[Linden Lab's New CEO]

Here here!  Great post Agent,  you really lay it all out clearly.  I'm not a mesh developer but everything I've heard about mesh is that it will be a win-win situation for everyone.  Content creators,  game players, and Linden Lab will all benefit.  I think I need to learn to use blender 2.54 !!

[Linden Lab's New CEO]

Welcome aboard Rod!   Get ready for the roller-coaster ride that is SL (oh wait, the roller coster was in "Theme Park" game ... back in the ancient days of the 90's ! )

[Farewell, Avatars United]

I didn't read all the comments here, because there are so many of them.  One complaint is that Linden Lab should have sold AU to a third party.  Isn't it possible that they DID try to sell it,  but there was no buyer?   Or possibly that Linden Lab was the buyer of last resort  (i.e. no one else was interested in it).

I don't know if you noticed, but there is a major recession still underway,  and services that rely entirely upon advertising for revenue,  like AU,  are not likely to be swept up in a frenzied bidding war by wildly optimisitic investors who grossly overvalue them.

bucky:  You said it better than I could,  I agree with you whole-heartedly !
