As a new virtual kitty uncle, I’m sure that these stats are dreadfully ordinary to most KittyCatS breeders, but it IS a milestone; the first kitten born to my Minnie. I shall name it Primkin, as it’s the first, it’s made of prims, it’s small, and it’s kin (the gender isn’t known until the box is unpacked, or “birthed”). The proud parents are snoozing in the background. I thought something might happen yesterday when Dash reached “100% Love,” while Minnie had reached the middle 90’s. She was having feeding issues of some kind a few days ago, fixed by taking…

This seems like a good starting point for Bug, who needs to mess with the sliders a bit to make herself look more… like the little red-headed tomboy she’s supposed to be. The bulk of what I’m posting below is my own re-phrasing of a guide posted on the official forums by Penny Patton. The forums have a habit of disappearing or getting buried, so I wanted to make a blog post with the same general advice. I know, only in SL would anyone consider a blog to have more viability of lasting than the actual official forum…Apart from the…

It’s Sunday, let’s go to church: Constable’s “Salisbury Cathedral from the Bishop’s Garden” is massively improved by these Star Destroyers, no? Yes. Of course. This would be quite easy to accomplish in Second Life, as star destroyers are actually more common than cathedrals there. As an occasional churchgoing man, it might be amusing to turn up for Morning Prayer at the Anglican Cathedral wearing the new “steam punk Zeppelin” new-player avatar. In unrelated news: my KittyCats pet Minnie has informed me that she had her first kittenbox! Miss Lelani and I have been quite distracted with the creatures (her pet…

@MoodyLoner Those damn fascist house gremlins! # @hbahimself I've got Picasa pretty organized, sorted everything into folders based on subject: trips taken, events, #SL groups, etc. # @hbahimself However I also use a Picasa2Flickr widget to make uploading to Flickr pretty painless! # Made a neko tail last night at KittyCatS in a class taught by Myrddin Janus. Evangelize the shoppers! Go forth and build! #SecondLife # @hbahimself Ah, but you can organize them in Picasa, and batch upload to Flickr with a plugin: http://is.gd/T6Qxz5 # @hbahimself Editing in Picasa is possible, though I use GIMP for anything more than…

I’ve been wearing it enough – for months, actually, and my friend BookemJackson Streeter loves hers, so it’s not like I couldn’t go ahead and box it up for sale, right? Right!! At last! Have fun flying around your favorite Second Life locations in the Steamlands or anywhere with this Flight Assist Topper. In an antique Western medicine-show style, with flexi feathers and rotating, golden gears. Haida Indian sunburst detail on the gears; now you can visit Steelhead or one of the other Western themed Steampunk sims in style.This hat was originally a gift in the STEAM 4 hunt but…

Yep, if you watch closely as the camera swings around, I’m standing near the back with my friend Stranger Nightfire. Tags are left visible in this video so people can be identified. I think this video was shot by the performer as he sang, so he was really multitasking!

Salt Lake City – This was the place you couldn't wait to leave. #hometownslogans # Beautiful Eugene, the Womb with a View #hometownslogans # The blue-est skies you've never seen, in Seattle #hometownslogans # Grand Junction: Where the rivers meet, when the US Corps of Engineers says so. #hometownslogans # @lizzwinstead Used to tune out my mom (she lived to be 90) when she said "the drug scene) in the late 70's # Actually, Mom never stopped using the term "the drug scene" decades after it was considered current. # WaPost Fact Checker column calls Bachmann health care views "nonsensical"…

I’m using the celebrations at #SL8B as a way to get more socially active in Second Life; have to admit that it’s been occasionally exhilarating getting IMs from old friends and new friends saying “get over here!” or “OMG famous people at this party.” I had never actually seen a Linden with my own virtual eyes and real monitor until I went to the Thursday event, which featured an appearance but no speeches by Rodvik Linden and Lexie Linden. I now have an actual Linden bear, and yes, I know I could get a bunch more at “Bear Island” on…

Rodvik Linden: Stay On Target There’ve been good things happening at Second Life/Linden Labs lately; Viewer 2 is improving, new-ish CEO Rod Humble/Rodvik Linden is actively engaged and sometimes actually building and making stuffs, there’s renewed emphasis on customer support and recapturing the irrepressible magic. Yes, yes, yes, there are still lots of problems, lots of hurt feelings, lots of nay-sayers saying nay (no linky love). But there are trends to watch at Tateru Nino’s stats page that are interesting. And now, the Lab is hiring again, after years of layoff announcements and sad farewells to popular Lindens who had…
