1. When will the mobile app be available by LL ? 2. Why is the secondlife.com website not showing who is online inworld? It shows that everyone is offline.

As a very active person I talk too much with people, sometimes I have to go and leave the conversation without ending it. Sometimes I wish I could open an app just like WhatsApp and continue wherever I am without needing to bring my lap top with me. It would be really cool if just that was added, i don't ask for a fully SL app, but just an app to keep with the chat. What do you guys think, you guys feel the same way? Let me know! 😆

Just a quick post to share my experience using the Fusion 5 Windows tablet to connect to Second Life. I bought the version with 4gb ram, which is still inexpensive compared to the Surface and Samsung Windows tablets at under $200 us. It's also smaller at 10 inches which I like as I use it while traveling. I'm using Fire Storm as my primary viewer, with very low settings obviously. But with crappy hotel Wi-Fi I get between 5-15 fps. Frame rates plummet in demanding situations, such as clubbing, but I can control that a bit thanks to Jelly Doll settings in FS. The Fusion's mic is terrible, and the system is strained as it is, so I don't use voice with it. I use the external USB keyboard/cover. It's not great, but it works. Mostly. The keyboard has a touchpad, and there doesn't seem to be any way to turn it off or even adjust the sensitivity. It causes your cursor to jump while typing, ruining a line of text. That is my biggest complaint about the set up. At home, I use it as a second system to stream music for my budding DJ career. It runs Rocket Broadcaster like a boss.

The forums seem to have just changed to a mobile-first format. Less info, hamburger menus, more clicks to navigate. Or is that a mode selection somewhere?

Hey all, I was wondering if there was any way to stay in touch with SL friends outside of using an actual viewer, like maybe a kind of chat or messaging app? I already looked for a mobile app and learned there is none (I'm on iOS and outside the US), but I was wondering if there's some kind of text-only messaging system that either works on a phone or on a computer without installing any software. I'd like to use it from work here and there but can't install a viewer or other software on my computer there.
