Second Life is not dying. Second Life will be around for many more decades yet. It's still growing with Private Estates and Linden Owned regions showing positive growth (0.5%). The Bellisseria continent is still expanding down south. There is a huge community there now and it's set to become ten times larger during the next 6-12 months. Learning islands and Social islands are still around which are still active. The old orientation islands and help islands are still around but with hardly anyone there. Linden Lab are adding improvements and new features every year. The land prices have come down which has helped a lot. The lab are adding new places every week to the Second Life Destination Guide. There are so many amazing places there along with loads more. What's Next for Linden Lab ? Yes, some of the focus has turned towards Sansar in recent years and in a way I wish they would spend their full attention on Second Life. Sansar has low currency numbers with events held now and then. Time will tell how success it will be as the years go past. SL avatars will live forever 😐 I've been in Second Life for almost 13 years.

I joined back in late October 2006 and I had a pick from a drop down list of last names First - my real first name Second - voyager sounded cool at the time (reminds me of startrek / voyage through the metaverse)

Mole regions - 11th October 2019

SSP83X map changes over time 11th October 2019 20th August 2019 9th June 2019

Nice water area in SSPE131 😍

Congratulations Patch

Thanks very much. The cruise ship rezzed alright in rez zones in some areas however it does encounter trouble when trying to set off. The captain area on the bridge is cool and all you have to do is click ride > approve the notifications to attach everything. Region crossings work fine.

SSPE99 with the Phototools- Horizon Building Light 01 windlight option switched on Found this funny message 😂🤣😂

Interesting set of regions here.

That makes sense. @Patch Linden Just wondering if you could answer these questions if you have some time. Thanks! What is the estimated number of new homes that need to be built now ? Is it around the 38, 000 mark like stated above ? Are the old Linden home continents going to be closed down next year ? (my suggestion is to move the whole of them next to the Bellisseria continent so folks can go travel between the old and new)

New stream and more campers are being put in (SSPE100) and around the outside of the Bellisseria continent if you follow the mountain ranges. It's not showing on the map yet but it's there if you visit the outer regions. It looks like the Moles are now filling the huge empty areas around the continent with new streams, new areas and campers.

I agree. Yeah the Winter Expo sounds about right to me. This is the first preview of the regions I believe in that case via the map. The SL Christmas Expo 2019 starts December 5th to 15th December 2019. I would imagine we will get a preview sometime within those dates and then a big release in late December 2019 or in early January 2020. Linden Homes 4th Edition

I thought Elderglen and Shareta Osumai was pretty nice. The odd place here and there is alright from my adventures over the weekend. New snapshots of the old Linden Home continents The Bellisseria continent I think is more welcoming overall with all the brand new areas and themes.

Anyone noticed the Moles are adding more campers on the north east of the Bellisseria continent ? Yay! Just found this while searching for SSP regions via the Map search. It's south of the learning islands and perhaps this is related somehow. Winter / Christmas Houseboats ? Shopping Area ? Also found some LH Dev regions 😂 Moles love their colour selection

Can you reveal any new info on the south extension down the south of the SSP continent ?

I'm seeing this too and from what I can tell it goes from SSP601 to SSP700. This is a massive extension and the prediction game is now open. The Moles have moved the houseboats area today to the top right of the SSP continent with the blank regions under it. Huge extension down south. Looks like the water regions above it are being upgraded. What will they be used for ?

Two newer developments going on over on the SSP continent. There is another far north east which has been there for some time now. The Moles are rolling out new houseboats left of the campers area now. Here is what the Bellisseria continent will finally end up being like either later this year or in early 2020. Still room for more new Linden home themes to launch and new exciting areas to open up. Don't forget about the mountain areas. Today I just found a boat on SSP339 which belongs to a Mole I would imagine and a new dock at the edge of the SSP continent down south.

For now yeah lol

The amazing Campwich Forest and Campwich Lodge on a autumn Wednesday morning 😍

New train tracks being rolled out in SSPE297 going south into the new region SSPE313 😍 There is a new train station being built in SSPE313 I love the Moles extending the train tracks A huge water region at SSPE328 New regions added south of the campers area highlighted in red Did anyone notice the Moles have added another underwater area in SSPE208

Most welcome. I will add to that when more stations appear in the months ahead.

The lab says it's in the works and there will be updates soon on the return of Last Names. I'm guessing we may hear something before the end of 2019 or early 2020. More to come!There’s more in the works, too! Stay tuned for updates on when to expect the return of Last Names, availability of a new mobile app beta, changes to Premium options, improvements to Events, Search, the Destination Guide, and much more.
