Second Life web resources for August 22nd 2007 through August 23rd 2007

August 23, 2007 4:30 pm
  1. Smiley Barry - Meet me There! - Smiley went on a spy mission to There. It seems they have stolen our Windlight - now that’s where it’s gone! - and even added collision sensitive rain and snow. *sobs*
  2. Eye-Tracking Video by Enquiro captures Second Life Eye - Eye Tracking studio in Second Life. Can we use such tools for 2D websites to measure this in a 3D environment too?
  3. SLFeed: A Drupal Module - Inworld Drupal RSS Feed Pre-Release - Your2ndPlace - In-world RSS reader for the Drupal CMS. (Beta version, I think) (It works just fine. :-) Nobody F.)
  4. Last call for the 1st Annual Architecture and Design Competition in Second Life - The winners will be chosen from five categories: High-Rise Architecture, Private Homes, Commercial Architecture and V-Shopping, Landscape Design und Special Projects. Deadline: September 1st

There stole the WindLight? They should steal Voice too :)

There might be nice, but until there’s a Linux version, I’ll echo Gertrude Stein: there’s no there there.

The SLFeed isn’t beta - I’ve been using the beta for some time. It is just pre-release until I add it to the Drupal contribution CVS. It works just fine. :-)

Dandellion, maybe we can do an exchange? (And I think they had voice before we had it. ;))

Nobody: Changed.

Nope. I am not going There. SL spoiled me. Even with all the lag, bugs and what not, I don’t see myself in 3D consumerist’s MySpace. User-generated-content is what makes this world interesting to me.

@Vint & Dandellion: Yeppers, they had it about 3 and a half years before us (2004!) :-/. I have an old test zone at There if anyone wants to sign up to see it for real.

Oo, forgot to say: Their “Ripple Water” option is also there, and it’s a bit faster than ours ‘^_^. Plus their physics engine is much better :O (especially for vehicles)

Oooo, one thing about voice — in There it’s Premium-members only X.X (i’m an old one). Plus, their premium membership is US$10 one-time! I just payed US$50 that time ’cause I wanted to buy T$ with it and get 12,000T$ extra :p.

Warning though: Once you’re in the world, select There -> Customize -> World -> Forcefield if it’s unmarked. Griefers hide in the bushes for new basic members o.o.

What do griefers do there? Same sh*t as here or they invented something new?

Dandellion, we take hostage their voice and exchange that for our WindLight. Not going there either. God knows I can’t handle a Third / There Life. =)

Hide in the bushes => I think we have the Pantera’s for that. *grins*

Oh they just… Run over newbies with hoverbikes, hoverbacios, hoverbuggies, hoverboards, basically, everything. (And no, there ARE normal vehicles: Buggies :p)

Luckily for them, basic members can’t give/receive money/items so they can’t beg for stuff from us! xD

Thinking of which, maybe it is me romantic immersionist, but I would always want beautiful sky more than blingtards talking around.

Run over: that’s the best you can do? ;)

Now that would be something interesting, in stead of comparing ‘business oppertunities’ in the metaverse, comparing ‘griefing methods’ in all different 3D worlds. ;)

Dandellion, nah. I’m a mixture of both, and I prefer WindLight too. I think the main thing here is that they first gave it to us, and then took it away again. Which is awefully mean. Evil, evil, Linden Gods!
