It's funny, they appear on the blog entries for about an hour or so, and then suddenly they are gone. That means the trackback was once there, and then removed by some Linden, right? ;) (Call it censorship or removal or "Bunderfielded", but they should change the text in "but you can leave a trackback. But only if you say nothing but nice things and talk about snowmen.") I mean removed as in censored here.

See http://s3.amazonaws.com/static-secondlife-com/reports/marketplace_stats/2009-01-11/islands_added.xml Interestingly http://s3.amazonaws.com/static-secondlife-com/reports/marketplace_stats/2009-01-12/islands_added.xml does not work for me today. Maybe it will tomorrow, or maybe they've finally stopped providing these misleading figures ;-) Oh, and btw the figure is nearer to 18.08% now.

ULT/TOT = Unusable Land Time/Total Ownership Time: time you have to pay for a region but you can't use it: for example, when requesting a normal sim to openspace conversion, and then when you request a conversion back to a standard sim. This indicator has gone very high lately. HLO = Hours Lost Wondering. Wondering why tickets take so long to process, why emails to SLInvoice@lindenlab.com don't never get a reply, can't an island you are paying for can't be used while it's in the queue to be converted, why to convert a normal sim to an OpenSpace requires erasing the region, etc. Oh, and Second Inventory Time/Total Time, Time Collecting Freebies/Total Time, Time Spent Endlessly Relocating Your Remaining Stuff/Total Time, ...

I'd like to see an additional metric related to "Number of Linden bears handed out": "Number of bears which couldn't be delivered due to asset server problems and are now lost floating in limbo" Hehe great article! I’d like to see an additional metric related to “Number of Linden bears handed out”:

“Number of bears which couldn’t be delivered due to asset server problems and are now lost floating in limbo”
