The New Improved Dogland Park

Even with no clinic, Dogland Park improves. Without the restrictions and limits placed on Dogland by Enrico Genosse, the park has become more of what the VKC Dog Owners Open Chat Group wanted. There are always fully trained VKC and D&D dogs available for relocation at great low costs. We also now no longer must cater to the wishes of others, concerning telling truth about certain vendors products that are bad for our SL dogs. Dogland support team can now be perfectly honest with all about wh… Continue

The Children's Interactive Library

Let’s face it. Many students in primary/secondary and even tertiary are not library goers. Sometimes the whole semester ended without visiting it. Well, sometimes it is because of the facilities or the library itself that is not inviting to us.

But here is an interesting video I’ve browse a while ago. This is said to be a prototype of “The Children's Interactive Library” in the future. Well I guess this will need some large funds and I cannot think of… Continue

Second Life Librarians on NING

Hello, ALALibraryVal Miles here. I offered to help the group's creator, Jim Milles, administer this group, mostly to get rid of the spam and spammers that had begun to fill the space. So Jim took me up on my offer (!) and I proceeded to delete the spam about sizes of zoot suits and other things, and I banned the "members" who had contributed such junk.

And then... Well, I had more ideas. I added three RSS feeds to the front page -- well, actually these three feeds are aggregate feeds… Continue

Dear Lauren Neutron…

Hi kids! Get syph! Only joking…

Thanks for the great response to last week’s column, and we’ve got some good questions this week too. I knew it wouldn’t take long before the “Hey, whose alt are you?” questions started… To clarify, I am not Tenshi, or any current or past SCD bloggers. I’m new! Don’t forget, anything that you want to ask can be notecarded to Lauren Neutron directly, or emailed to dear.lauren.neutron@googlemail.com – I promise to answer anything and everything. Except “Hey, whose alt are you?”.

New this week, you can friend me on Plurk – http://www.plurk.com/laurenneutron – and send me a private plurk with your questions. I promise, as always, to keep you anonymous – if I reveal your identity, I’ll reveal mine too. Five or six people might even care!

Four letters this week. Go grab a coffee, this is a long one! First up…

Dear Lauren,

How many people in SL now have lost their husband/wives/partners due to online infidelity?

Curious

A lot. I can think of one particularly good example of a high profile couple whose real life marriage ended recently because both of them were pixelfucking anything that walked past. Their list of crotch victims is as long as a ban list. Why did they do it, when they spent so much time and money getting “known” as a power couple? Who knows. It’s not my place to judge… which doesn’t stop me judging. Don’t get me started on SL couples and the juice involved – I’d be here all day.

Dear Lauren,

I have been just ‘hanging out’ (read “shopping!!!”) on SL for over a year now, and want to contribute something to the community instead of just existing. Do you have any suggestions about how to begin to be a content-creator? I like to do animations and poses, but wouldn’t mind learning about making clothing or hair or pre-fab houses. Furniture-building seems fun too. What are the best resources for getting started? And what about marketing, finding a place for a store, getting traffic, etc?

Thanks so much!

Love,

Done-Hanging-Out

Hi Done-Hanging-Out!

Owning a business in SL is more stress than its worth if you just want to contribute to the community. It’s not just the product that you need to manufacture to excellent spec, you need to keep on top of satellite locations, hunt invites (six a day, not joking), transaction failures, customer service queries, SLX listing, promotion, marketing, advertising… add that to your real life job and commitments, and your enjoyment levels of SL will plummet. Time to hang out and shop? Vastly diminished.

People who own stores and keep up with them generally do so because of a huge interest in what they’re doing – ask them and they’ll tell you they’d do it even if they weren’t selling their product for money. (Well, the ones that aren’t jackasses will).

With that being said, if you do still decide you want to make something in SL, let’s go through them one by one.

Animations/poses – you’ll need  a programme like Poser, Blender or Qavimator, and the av mesh, and the time to practice. The pose market is saturated at the moment, people don’t buy them often and when they do, they have an awful lot of choice. If you’re good you’ll do fine, but this is true of [...]
