This is another opinion piece. I honestly don't know if they come across well, since most people will know this site for the creations, and won't bother too much with my babble about SL, OpenSim and copyright. But after watching one of Pathfinder's speeches on VWBPE on Sunday, I've had to think a bit. Focussing so much on SL and OpenSim ...

This is a downer. I don't even know if I want to write this post, as I have already written several about the same topic in the past, and there's no shortage of blogposts criticizing it all around. However, it's not my intent to be a critic. You see, I've been writing a little on SLUniverse lately, and there is this ...

With all the criticism and bashing of Second Life and its provider Linden Labs, it's pretty easy to assume they never could get anything right. Still, surprisingly, Linden Labs is one of the few virtual world companies still in business, and there have to be reasons for that. So let's have a look at the things they actually did right ...

I know, I'm late to the party, as always. The post that's going around right now is already from February, and I guess everyone's getting swamped with "predictions for 2011" right now anyway, so there's really no need to add my own crap to the mess. But then, that's what blogging is about: Adding your crap to the mess. Not ...

(english version) Ja. Ja, ich weiß. Rosedale schreibt einen Blogpost, und natürlich wird kurz danach die ganze SL blogosphäre in Flammen stehen. Die Fanjungs werden darüber abgehen, wie toll alles jetzt sein wird ((Ohje, sie machen's ja schon. Ich sollte wirklich aufhören, Blogkommentare zu lesen.)) , die Pseudoanalytiker werden darauf hinweisen (und sich unvermeidbar irren), wie dies und das zu diesem und ...

Content and experienced (Deutsche Version) Yes. Yes, I know. Rosedale's writing a blog post, and sure enough soon thereafter all the SL blogosphere will be ablaze. The fanbois will go on about how great everything will be now ((Oh well, they already are. I really should stop reading blog comments.)) , the pseudo-analytics will point out how this and that will influence ...

(english version) Türen. Das Problem mit Second Life sind Türen. Gespannt auf ein weiteres Freebie eines Erstellers, dessen Gebäude sie sehr mag, gingen meine Partnerin El und ich zu einer Sandbox um es auszupacken und zu untersuchen. Es war ein großes Gebäude, eine Art Palast, mit großartigen Texturen, wie wir erwartet hatten. Allerdings sah das Gebäude "flach" aus, wie El bemerkte. Ich ...

Doors & Windows; (Deutsche Version) Doors. The problem with Second Life is doors. Being excited about another freebie from a creator whose buildings she really liked, my partner El and I went to a sandbox to unpack it and examine it. It was a large building, some kind of palace, using great textures, as we had expected. However, the building looked "flat", ...
