My Other BlogIn ‘A Tale Of Two Avatars’, Wagner James Au reports on the discovery that there are two ‘Hamlet Aus’ on the social networking site ‘Avatars United’. Like many things to do with life on the screen, a superficial consideration of this discovery leads to a clear-cut and simple conclusion: There is the real Hamlet [...]

[UPDATE] My interview with Namssor Daguerre on Ana Lutetia’s blog, which is the #10 most read blog in Second Life. Thanks for letting me publish [...]
I had started to write this in mid-October but never finished it… and the database crashed at some point while I was in the middle of writing it, losing almost all of the article In the mean time, the recent interest in this topic, as well as M Linden’s announcement that they would [...]
As Linden Lab prepares the last round of bug-fixing before launching the brand new SL 2.0 viewer (will it run on Apple’s iPad? lol), I did a few movies showing off how good Snowglobe actually runs on way old laptops.
This is pretty much a personal discussion I’ve got with NetAntwerp, who refuses to believe that [...]

On the same day, I got hold of two bits of news from the metaverse front: first, Blue Mars announced their pricing. Oh, all right, I know I’m behind the news… the point is that this relaunched the Second Life® vs. Blue Mars debate once again. I started following the SLED (Educators in SL) mailing [...]
