Bart in SL

Cory Ondrejka aka Cory Linden, one of the longest running employees of Lindenlab and its chief technician (CTO) is leaving. Why? The reasons remain mysterious. Some speculate that he had different visions for the future of SL than Philip Rosedale has. What does this mean for LL? Well, many think that the company is in for a tough ride now and it's going to be very hard to fill the gap Cory Ondrejka leaves, since he's one of the few people who can still understand the big picture as it seems. So - we're going to see.

• There is now a blog from Charity Colville in which she tells her side of the story about "The rise and fall of Phat Cat's". The events around Phat Cat's have been going on for quite some time now, I still wonder that they haven't come to an end, yet. In the end it's a story you cannot find out on your own, if it's right or wrong, so it's about whom you believe more.
  
• Metaversed has been running an article about a LL-function that has been disabled by the Lindens without notice and has broken many seats and other sitting furnitures. Ouch. It has been undocumented, but widely used all the time, the Lindens considered it a hack instead. And, oh well, one of the residents even got wind before it happened weeks ago and told them that it's a bad idea at all. No reaction. Bummer.

Torley Linden has a nice entry about a series of photographs of the Lindens! Go ahead and take a look at it, it's nice to see them, especially since some are complaining they're more or less invisible nowadays on the main grid.
