The Grand Tour returns to Second Life with The “All Aboard Grand Tour†on Saturday and Sunday, February 19 and 20, 2011. The tour includes 15 different locations with a theme of trains and transportation.The Grand Tour began in 2008 as a positive expression after some unpopular decisions by Linden Lab left many residents discouraged. A few people got together and created the marathon event. The All Aboard Grand Tour is the fifth tour. The creator of the event, Fogwoman Gray, summarizes the purpose, which had become the motto of all grand tours: “To bring all nations and groups together…

Just like this woman here, except that most of my stuff is not rezzed, it’s just sitting in my inventory making me wonder “what the hell is that?” And then a lot more of it is boxed up in an “organizer” which isn’t really that useful, and consists of freebies from various seasonal hunts that are individually nice, but collectively are a nightmare. What to do? The memories! I can’t dump them!

I’ve spent too many hours tinkering with GIMP, trying to find images in Picasa, fooling with the Second Life editor trying to find stuff in my inventory, and struggling to remember all the nifty ideas I had for products… on the other hand, I DID get one new product listed today, and I’ll have another couple ready to go in the next few days. Wow, it was a tough hurdle, but I eventually cleared it. Meanwhile, still working on a better method for organizing inventory. Anyway, here is “The Man In The Kyomoon Lamp.” It’s technically a lamp, but it’s…

It’s an incredible deal for 3D modeling software. What the heck, it’s normally almost $1200 for the pro version. If enough people “dare to share,” they get the software. If not, the money is refunded (and I paid via PayPal, which can’t hurt). It’s overkill, but may be fun to play with for Second Life purposes. The software company pmG Worldwide is conducting a viral test marketing campaign by selling their award-winning animation/rendering engine Messiah Studio 5 for an incredibly low price. There are two options for purchase, the first being a limited-feature basic edition for $10 (regularly priced at…

Insightful new thought-leader emerges in Second Life, so look for @StopClengBenk to start his libelous smears on the Twitter soon. Also, it’s Bewbie Wednesday! Please, won’t someone remember the chickens? The first step for those who try to undermine our way of life is always to have us start fighting amongst ourselves. That way we are too busy to notice their machinations. They have succeeded in starting a grid-wide civil war between the bunnies and the ponies. Have you noticed that nobody is even talking about the poor chickens? Wake up people! They’re trying to tear us apart!
