Well Timed Humor
My selfless friend, mentor, adviser, business partner, and so much more sent me an IM that could not have been better timed. With rl work, sl drama from a few residents, sim growth, prep for DevLearn08, and normal real world things; Ener Hax has perfect timing (and grace too, don’t let perceived naiveté fool you).
Being quite passionate about Second Life, there are times when it just does the soul a world of good to laugh at yourself. Well for anyone that is into Second Life, this link will provide for a few head nods and perhaps a real LOL.
Brandon Hall Research blog
Tom Werner has a blog over at Brandon Hall that discusses various aspects of Second Life. It’s a refreshing read on a general topics.
I liked his view on whether platforms like Second Life are a game or not (my comments are there) and on how people represent themselves in Second Life (a topic I will touch on here as well).
He also discussed the MystiTool, which is a very handy HUD loaded with useful features like a rezzable table that keeps adding chairs as needed, sky platforms, “elevators”, non-physical vehicles (for push protection), and many other features (the proximity aspect is what I use the most whle I am building so that I don’t get surprised by someone showing up next to me).
Here is an absolutely great write up discussing the Mysti in great detail.
Hope to see you at DevLearn08! =D
