5 days and counting… October 26, 2008

That is how long it has taken us to sign up one 14 year old on Second Life Teen Grid.  Unbelieveable and possibly the reason so little growth has been seen in the TG the past year.  The registration process keeps failing after ‘verification’, which is in itself rather weird as they expect a 14 [...]

Heather Goodliffe responds to ‘Scripters, designers, creators – what right?’ September 12, 2008

I am posting here the complete response from Heather Goodliffe to my previous post ‘Scripters, designers, creators – what right?’.  I asked Heather for her comments to my post and she very kindly responded with a clear and balanced comment that I felt should be shared as it is:
‘Excellent post Dumi!  Thanks for the invitation to [...]

SUP Surfing – Whooooootttttttttt!!!! September 11, 2008

Hiya everyone! I’m so bummed about missing out on SL life at the moment.  I cannot wait to fix things up with LL and get back inworld asap!
But I’m being spoiled in RL.  A good friend of mine is introducing me to SUP surfing on Big Bay in Blouberg, Cape Town, South Africa – Whoooottttt! [...]

Scripters, designers, creators, what right? August 29, 2008

I have been really concerned lately about some issues that keep cropping up in SL and in particular in the surf community.  V has covered the politics, so I thought I would share a little about the issues that bother me other than politics.
I love the designers, creators and scripters in SL, who made the [...]

My home, a peaceful fun and fantastic place! August 24, 2008

Many of you may not know me well, and may not know where I live in Second Life. Those that do know just how crazy I am about all of you, and the fantastic friendship we have all developed there. So for those who don’t but who wish to be a part of a warm [...]

I’m a little frustrated right now… August 13, 2008

Hiya everyone, okay, serious problem.  I’m traveling at the moment in Africa and realized two days ago that Linden Lab have suspended my account. No, not big mean LL, they had good reason as I suddenly had US$500 owed to them that was not automatically settled by my bank.  What a mess!  I have been [...]

My SL life continued… August 9, 2008

I wanted to write an update to my previous post of my future in SL.  I have now just hit the first deficits in owing Linden Lab money since my new employer only pays me at the end of August.  Sadly it seems we will receive no compensation from the old company for whom I [...]

Second Life lsl scripts for free use August 4, 2008

I have launched a little tool on Bishara Resorts’s blog that allows us to freely share some script ideas.  Right now there are only 3 little scripts for everyone to download and use in Second Life, but I will load as many as I have under the various open use licenses that govern them.  If [...]

BMW leaves Second Life! July 31, 2008

Wow, another bit of sad news, though maybe not as bad as some these days.  BMW announced it will withdraw from Second Life.  Interesting, lots of debate about what they were doing there in the first place, but for me it is just again a reminder to Linden Lab that residents who have put blood [...]
