[Viewer 2.5 with Web Profiles Has Arrived]

Q Linden said: Watching the internal data, we've already seen a noticeable improvement in stability and performance--on par with Viewer 1.23.

Back To The Future?

My response is none of the above. Privacy concerns aside - your web services are aggravatingly slow - even without Second Life running.

Face it. The only thing rarer than someone using Viewer 2 in world  is an avatar with the last name of Resident. We're "Waist Deep In The Big Muddy" - and you're telling us to tweet it.

Dear Linden Lab,

I've notice increasing difficulties viewing sculpts using Snowglobe. (I'm a Mac). So, today I downloaded your new 2.5 viewer - and it's update. After two dozen attempts and various reconfigurations - I gave up trying to log on and downloaded the 2.6 viewer. I was able to log on - and see the missing sculpts.  However, as the main thing I do in SL is machinima - and you haven't fixed https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-22778 - I'm at a crossroads.

On another note - I also discovered the new web based profiles - which you can't view in world without setting your browser to accept all spam and scams - and the new "Advertise Here" box.

I would like to know where to check the "Opt Out" box. Until you have one, I've cleared my profile of all information. If I find targeted ads showing up on my profile that indicate you've been mining my buying preferences, I'll opt out of SL altogether.

Welcome!

Seeing you playing with the toys is the most hopeful sign I've seen from SL management in years.
