<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://castertwy.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/habbo.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-43 aligncenter" title="habbo" src="http://castertwy.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/habbo.jpg?w=300" alt="" width="300" height="282" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Social media platforms are big particularly due to the factor of interactivity. Advertisers have seized this opportunity and already began working their magic in these areas.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Like in Habbo, where users make friends and do things together, advertisers have set up zones in the online game. You have American Idol &#8211; people get to roleplay as aspiring idols or realise the ferocious threat of elimination due to the lack of votes. Scandals with Idol judges are another story.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">There are real celebrities as well all for the publicity. Wouldn&#8217;t you love to know how aesthetically-pleasing or quirky it would be to have Lady Gaga perform to &#8216;Bad Romance&#8217; and try to have a virtual smooch with Gossip Girl Chace Crawford&#8217;s habbo character &#8211; like they did in &#8216;Poker Face&#8217;?</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://castertwy.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/celebs1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-52" title="celebs" src="http://castertwy.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/celebs1.jpg?w=300" alt="" width="300" height="222" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Hmm.. Titillating?</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Perhaps not so much when there&#8217;s Second Life. Characters are 3D with options to customise intricate details of the body structure. It was a promising platform, other than fulfiling the primary purpose of expanding one&#8217;s social circle, for businesses to break geological differences and have conferences online; brands to set up virtual stores and garner product awareness on top of brand reinforcement. However, users who are charged with testoterone and progesterone, whichever applies, choose to solicit online &#8211; most likely due to how real the hot actions can get with user-created scripts.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Characters however are not &#8216;born&#8217; with their own private parts. Looking at how unsightly my character was without one, I set out to figure out how to get my hands on the crotch &#8211; yelling,&#8221; Where&#8217;s my crotch?&#8221;, &#8220;Oh, what&#8217;s that on the ground, is it a usable tool?&#8221;.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Eventually, there was a gay male who enlightened me: Second Life characters have to BUY their own. And he was kind enough to fix my undesirable features and flab around the belly into a dashing male:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://castertwy.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/lalaaa.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-55" title="lalaaa" src="http://castertwy.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/lalaaa.jpg" alt="" width="177" height="285" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">The briefs were from him too, of course. Sweet.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">

<description><![CDATA[Just me and the sky and a prim When I first came to Second Life, three years ago last Sunday, I was ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/ceoln/303853501/"><img alt="Height 300 by ceoln, on Flickr" src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/117/303853501_89d0fccf05.jpg" title="Height 300 by ceoln, on Flickr" width="500" height="352" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Just me and the sky and a prim</p></div>
<p>When <a href="http://www.davidchess.com/words/log.20061124.html#20061126">I first came to Second Life</a>, three years ago last Sunday, I was mostly intrigued by the idea that you could <em>make things</em> there, in this &#8220;virtual world&#8221; where the laws of physics would be perhaps kinder, and more mutable, than in the real world.</p>
<p>Although we all know that the difficulty of The First Hour Experience is one of the Big Problems with the platform today, I wasn&#8217;t a victim of it: I was hooked after about ninety seconds.  A whole, and apparently pretty large and complex and random, world to explore, without having to drive anywhere or get dressed or even get out of bed!  And (see above) where anyone could just stick out a hand and build random things!  Amazing!</p>
<p>For awhile I and/or it was crashing so much (you kids don&#8217;t know how easy you&#8217;ve got it these days!) that I wasn&#8217;t sure I was going to be able to stand it, but it and I got used to each other, and I stuck around.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s been a fascinating three years.  As I say probably far too often, I came for the building and scripting and stuff, but stayed for the people.  I still love the building and scripting, but I&#8217;m pretty sure that I spend less time on that than I do on talking to friends, dancing in clubs, meeting new people, and generally hanging out.</p>
<p>There is for obscure reasons a <a href="http://secondlife.wikia.com/wiki/Poppin's_Challenge">tradition</a> in some subcultures of Second Life, that involves leaping naked from the sky, holding an umbrella, on one&#8217;s rezday.</p>
<div class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 510px"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/ceoln/4126232497/"><img alt="How sure are we about this?" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2726/4126232497_bb0ee6652a.jpg" title="How sure are we about this?" width="500" height="500" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">How sure are we about this?</p></div>
<p>So there I am, again &#8216;way up in the virtual sky, on a slightly more sophisticated virtual sky platform (my <a href="http://daleinnis.wordpress.com/2008/06/23/the-floating-rocks-tx-to-roger-dean/">floating rocks build</a>, which is still up there over the Hughes Rise park), with my virtual umbrella, pondering the drop.<br />
<div class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 510px"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/ceoln/4127002612/"><img alt="It really is a significant drop, isn&#39;t it?" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2749/4127002612_f7df5fab4b.jpg" title="It really is a significant drop, isn&#39;t it?" width="500" height="500" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">It really is a significant drop, isn&#39;t it?</p></div></p>
<p>This would be a good place for Deep and Significant Thoughts about Second Life, virtual worlds, the real world, the nature of consciousness, and so on.  If any thoughts like that come to me while I&#8217;m typing here, I&#8217;ll try to pass them along.  <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Being Dale has, I&#8217;m about 100% certain, been a good thing for me.  And continues to be.  Different people have very different attitudes toward, relationships with, their virtual selves.  For me it&#8217;s pretty simple: I am Dale Innis.  Saying that I identify with my avatar is as much of an understatement (and an overstatement) as saying that I identify with my RL body.  (Much more on that thought <a href="http://daleinnis.wordpress.com/2009/07/23/av-sl-body-rl/">here</a>.)  My Second Life friends are friends of mine, just like my First Life friends are friends of mine.  I don&#8217;t necessarily know where my SL friends live in RL, or what they do for a living, or whether they are married or have children; but since I can&#8217;t remember that sort of fact about my RL friends for more than five minutes either <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  that&#8217;s not a very large consideration for me.  The main difference, really, is that it&#8217;s so much easier to visit the SL ones.</p>
<div class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 522px"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/ceoln/4126232699/"><img alt="Completely naked?" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2525/4126232699_561ab2a7a1_o.jpg" title="Completely naked?" width="512" height="512" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Completely naked?</p></div>
<p>(Yes, completely naked; don&#8217;t complain to me, that&#8217;s the tradition.)</p>
<p>I continue to think, as I said all those years ago, that when we eventually look back on these very early days of virtual worlds, we will see it as the beginning of a huge and important change in the ways humans live their lives.  Exactly what that change will <em>be</em>, I don&#8217;t pretend to know.  I used fiction to speculate about it some back in <a href="http://daleinnis.wordpress.com/2008/07/11/meaties/">Meaties</a>; I like that story quite a bit (he said modestly), and it&#8217;s one possible answer to that question.  It might even be something like the right one; time will tell.</p>
<div class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 510px"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/ceoln/4126232739/"><img alt="It&#39;s pretty chilly up here." src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2729/4126232739_748b6475ca.jpg" title="It&#39;s pretty chilly up here." width="500" height="500" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">It&#39;s pretty chilly up here.</p></div>
<p>Lots of people that I know in SL, and even more people that I know of, have been talking lately about the Good Old Days of Second Life, and how it&#8217;s going downhill, and the best parts are over, due to some combination of floods of newcomers and &#8216;bots, bad media reporting, stupid and/or malicious actions by Linden Lab, drama and trollishness, personal burnout, and whatever else.  </p>
<p>I do sympathize with the feelings, and I am often puzzled by how completely clueless Linden Lab seems to be about communicating at least with the more engaged and articulate and clued segments of their customer base.  I continue to <a href="http://daleinnis.wordpress.com/2008/10/30/on-the-recent-unpleasantness/">attribute it to organizational randomness</a> rather than to any self-destructive attempt to drive customers away, or even a desire to replace unruly individual customers with large wealthy better-behaved corporate ones (I think the Lindens would like to have both, and are just not all that good at communicating with the former).</p>
<p>And for myself, I&#8217;m still having a great time.  <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />   I have <a href="http://daleinnis.wordpress.com/2009/11/21/eat-at-joes/">my first real store-like things</a>, I&#8217;ve been <a href="http://daleinnis.wordpress.com/2009/11/01/blake-sea-ferry/">exploring lovely places</a> and <a href="http://daleinnis.wordpress.com/2009/07/30/recent-adventures-fun-wonder-and-friendship/">having adventures with friends</a>, actually <a href="http://daleinnis.wordpress.com/2009/10/23/lighting-the-lamps/">enjoying official organized events</a>, and (of course, still, always) <a href="http://daleinnis.wordpress.com/2009/10/14/game-three-colors/">building random odd things</a> (and <a href="http://daleinnis.wordpress.com/2009/09/02/who-you-callin-goo/">things that build random odd things</a>).</p>
<p>There have certainly been days and nights when I didn&#8217;t feel like going inworld; so I didn&#8217;t!  But in general when the day is done and I have no more chores, and I can settle down into a comfy chair or bed with my laptop (<a href="http://daleinnis.wordpress.com/2009/09/27/fpsage/">yay, laptop!</a>) on my lap, and fire up <a href="http://daleinnis.wordpress.com/2009/10/26/imprudent-emerald-meerkats/">a viewer</a> and find myself in my Park, or my Extropia pod, or wherever, and the IMs from friends, and the freebies from last night&#8217;s Midnight Mania boards, and the announcements of new Midnight Mania boards, and the scripting questions, and&#8230; all begin to flow in, and I open my inventory to decide what to wear and do some token inventory-sorting, it feels kind of like coming home.</p>
<div class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 522px"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/ceoln/4126232769/"><img alt="Okay, deep breath..." src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2651/4126232769_8cf1bd4b2e_o.jpg" title="Okay, deep breath..." width="512" height="512" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Okay, deep breath...</p></div>
<p>Not that I&#8217;m knocking First Life; that&#8217;s pretty wonderful also.  And when talking about Deep Things I think it&#8217;s a mistake for me to think of them as two different things.  I have a life, and part of it is spent in Second Life, and part of it is spent in other places.  And it&#8217;s all good.  And, in the Spirit of the Season here in the US and A, I&#8217;m thankful for all of it.</p>
<div class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 510px"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/ceoln/4126232807/"><img alt="One, two, three, WAHOOO!" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2491/4126232807_bd1ca8db10.jpg" title="One, two, three, WAHOOO!" width="500" height="500" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">One, two, three, WAHOOO!</p></div>
<p>In Second Life, I can be a boy, a girl, a panda, a child, a tiny elephant, or a bright shiny sphere.  I can fly, I can walk under water, I can <a href="http://www.getafirstlife.com/">build a dirigible with my mind</a>.  I can meet people from countries I probably couldn&#8217;t find on the globe, and I can meet someone from down the street without knowing it.  It has its share of people with issues, of griefers and trolls, of misunderstanding and even some cruelty, but well, that&#8217;s humanity for ya.  I can build, create, explore, do art, try things out, experiment with my own shape and size and color and consciousness, and hang out and talk with other people who are doing the same kinds of things, and also very different ones.</p>
<p>That makes my life richer.  Not my First Life, or my Second Life; just my life.</p>
<p>And not only mine.</p>

<p>So to my friends, my friends-to-be, my &#8220;would have been friends except we never actually both logged in at the same time&#8221;, and everyone else who&#8217;s made these last three years such a blast, and who will I&#8217;m sure do the same for the next three, five, seven, a million years, my warmest thanks, and if there&#8217;s anything I can do to help make your own journey more interesting and enjoyable, just drop me a line&#8230;</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Linden Lab has decided to implement listing fees on XStreet.</p>
<p>As near as I can tell from hearsay and picking up a thread or two on linden blog and elsewhere, they plan to institute a 10L per listing, <em>per month</em> fee.</p>
<p>So basically on top of the percentage they already take from each sale, you will be paying for the privilege of having your items listed on the website.</p>
<p>It does not seem like much, but if you are (or were) like me and you had 200 some listings, and I know many who have/had twice that and more: <strong>do the math</strong>. It adds up.</p>
<p>So like many of my fellow designers and content creators, I am ditching XStreet and going to much friendlier and greener pastures.</p>
<p>Enough is enough already. And right in the middle of a global economic recession too. Shiny brass ones LL has, you think?</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">~~~~~~~~~~</p>
<p><strong>Places To Go:</strong></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><a href="http://www.apez.biz/" target="_blank"><strong>Apez.biz</strong></a></span><br />
Wonderful application. I love it! I reminds me of Onrez. And it has a nice vendor feature too, so you can set up your things on the web and then place a vendor in world full of whatever items you chose with just a few clicks.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.slapt.me/" target="_blank"><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>Slapt.me</strong></span></a><br />
Looks ok so far. I&#8217;ll be listing there for the first time.<br />
Be aware that the site will be a bit slow as people flood in from XStreet.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.metaverseexchange.com/" target="_blank"><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>MetaverseExchange</strong></span></a><br />
Again this looks pretty ok to me. I will be listing with them too for the first time. And they are nice enough to give a &#8220;XStreet Refugee&#8221; special too, as a nice welcome.</p>
<p><a href="http://meta-life.net/" target="_blank"><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>Meta-Life.net</strong></span></a><br />
Not sure about this one, I am checking it out.<br />
I only have so much time to devote to listing things, so I may just stick with Apez and Slapt if it comes down to a time crunch.</p>
<p>And if you want to ditch XStreet as the place you use for currency exchange as well, may I introduce you to <a href="https://www.eldexchange.eu/?r72" target="_blank">ELDEX Exchange</a>.</p>
<p>Great people, excellent customer service and multiple currencies available: Euro, USD, British Pounds and Swiss Francs.  The site also has many languages available, so you can read everything in your native tongue <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I have only sold lindens on that site, but would feel just as happy and comfy to buy there should the need ever arise.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">~~~~~~~~~~</p>
<p>I am showing my support for resident run enterprises, and also showing my disgust at Linden Lab and their greed. When I look around me in RL, and companies are bending over backwards to accommodate people in these tough financial times, it just floors me to see LL going the opposite direction.</p>
<p>This is the time to be giving discounts, and specials and reducing costs for clients and customers, not adding to the burden of trying to stay afloat.</p>
<p>As a consumer/shopper/fashionista, I do hope that you support your local designers and content creators by signing up on those sites, so you CAN still shop online and do as you did on XStreet.</p>
<p>Not everyone is ditching, but your favorite shop owner might be, so take a few minutes out of you schedule and get to know those other places to shop. And as always you know you can get whatever you want ~ and usually much more ~ at their shops in world. Be supportive!</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">~~~~~~~~~~</p>
<p>Feel free to comment, rant, add more information or whatever you like in comments here on this blog. They are moderated, but I will post all I get (within reason).</p>
<p>I understand that elsewhere people have been deleted and &#8220;moderated to death&#8221;, so if you need a place to say your piece: this is it. (try to keep the swearing to a minimum, I know it is hard, but I managed to do it with only a couple rewrites. ok 5 or 6 lol)</p>
<p>See you in world, and Long Live Designers in Second Life!</p>
<p><a href="http://ambergrisdesign.wordpress.com/files/2009/06/ambersig.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1301" title="AmberSIG" src="http://ambergrisdesign.wordpress.com/files/2009/06/ambersig.png" alt="" width="153" height="76" /></a></p>
<p>PS:</p>
<p>The following is how I got all my listings off of SLX, but if anyone knows a better/easier way, please post. I know many are asking how to do this, so they can avoid getting charged.</p>
<p>Because you WILL get charged if you leave ANY item in that database when the implementation of this program begins.</p>
<p><strong>1.</strong> I deleted all my items out of all my magic boxes.<br />
<strong>2.</strong> Then set all my listings on the site to status: Inactive. Which rendered them in a long list on the left hand side of the page.<br />
<strong>3.</strong> Then I clicked Edit on each one and scrolled down and hit the delete button. (so much fun! I did that over 200 times O.o)<br />
<strong>4.</strong> Once everything was listed at Zero (no items found etc), I clicked Remove on the magic boxes list.<br />
<strong>5.</strong> Then I deleted my all magic boxes from in world.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Alienbear has done it again.  Their latest release, Azucena, is available in platinum, gold, and soft antique gold (shown in pictures).  It&#8217;s intricate, it&#8217;s detailed, it&#8217;s fine, it&#8217;s fabulous, it&#8217;s fit for a queen!</p>

<p>There are two different styles of earrings:</p>
<p><a href="http://opiumsim.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/blog-fit-for-a-queen-earrings-1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6142" title="blog fit for a queen earrings 1" src="http://opiumsim.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/blog-fit-for-a-queen-earrings-1.jpg" alt="" width="138" height="321" /></a></p>
<p>one is intricately designed with swirls and gems and chains that dangle.</p>
<p><a href="http://opiumsim.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/blog-fit-for-a-queen-earring-option-2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6143" title="blog fit for a queen earring option 2" src="http://opiumsim.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/blog-fit-for-a-queen-earring-option-2.jpg" alt="" width="106" height="204" /></a>The other is like a beautiful blossom hanging with gorgeous gems dripping from it.</p>

<p>There are also two styles of tiara that go with the set.  This gorgeous set that blossoms with style bursts forth with more intricate swirls and beautiful gemstones.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>With thoughts of Thanksgiving being upon us in the United States, I am taking time out to think about how grateful I am for each opportunity I am given to be a better person.  Opportunities abound, even within SL, to reach out to others and put them first.</p>
<p>Perhaps we can all reach out to someone in SL, putting others before ourselves, and show we are thankful for all we have and all we are by supporting a worthy cause.</p>
<p><a href="http://refinedrendition.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/worthy-cause-image.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-254" title="worthy cause image" src="http://refinedrendition.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/worthy-cause-image.jpg" alt="" width="116" height="123" /></a></p>
<p>I challenge each of you to find a worthy cause through your adventures in SL and make time or a donation today!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>I&#8217;ve been up and about and busy all morning already!  I&#8217;ve done another video commercial, this one in which I was actually converted from a regular, plain audience member into a beautiful super model.  That was so much fun.  I can&#8217;t wait to see the finished product.</p>
<p>The schedule for the rest of the day is somewhat settled.  Return to real life work, which I was doing prior to the commercial shoot, prepare food for the holiday tomorrow (it&#8217;s Thanksgiving day here in the USA tomorrow), have a modeling meeting a little later in the day, and begin preparations for Saturday and what it will bring.  Whatever that may be.</p>
