Well, today was smooth and without any trouble. All was quiet in the garden, danced with several nice ladies and I found some stuff to read and to do.

Well, here’s my roundup:

• An article named „What do Paris Hilton and Second Life have in common?“ from the CEO of Iron Realms, a company doing business in and with MUDs, from 10/20/06. Well, Matt Mihaly takes a very negative stance against SL. No great news there, because they are competitors. The quote „SL is famous for being famous“ sums his opinion up very well! He has some points there, but the reason for a company going into SL is always first – cheap publicity. If you join there, then you’re hip, you get big press for nothing at all and the project costs are just a very minor part in your budget. That’s the way it works!
• A piece named „Relay for Life and Exploits“ from Hiro Pendragron from 06/20/06. Quote: „Linden Lab loves to play this game called „Let’s release a patch befor a major release!““. About the problems of the patch schedules and that he is the opinion that the Lindens should be allowed to play actually in the world while at work to get a grip of it. Point taken there, but not all Lindens are technicians like he writes.
• The article of the day: „Politiker in „Second Life“: Der US-Kongress wird virtuell.“ This was today at the frontpage of the website of the German magazine „Der Spiegel“. It’s about a new sim, in which the US congress was put into. Well, actually good PR for LL at no cost at all, since this is a biggie.
