The Russian Dolls: A Short Science Fiction Story by Extropia DaSilva

Step UP! day is today

After the huge launch by Linden Lab yesterday, addressing the real life business market, it’s time to get back in-world, and make sure that content theft doesn’t get more widespread, by making sure that everybody knows what it’s all about — including, of course, our dear Lindens
For that, a group of residents (which [...]
