Linden Lab to license network advertisers in Second Life
Massively
Sep 5th 2008 8:26PM *Carrie Fisher voice* I've got a bad feeling about this.
Licensing? What happens when LL starts to see advertising licensing as a profit center?
And how does this effect advertisers at NCI? That's a networked system, isn't it?

I am so not having anything to do with that game.
Goodbye, virtual environments. Hello, real environments.

Aug 14th 2008 8:54PM Umm, why does the application (i.e. the SecondLife client) have to host the AR? Why not just have a second application, like a web browser with the AR viewed on top, with an alpha channel (or magic pink, etc.) in its window? Wouldn't it be simpler to just hack Firefox once to allow transparent backgrounds?
Otherwise you're ultimately asking all applications to be modified to host ARs.
To answer Tateru's final question: "No." ;) But that's just me. I do things like turn off gadgets in OS X Tiger and Windows Vista, and the navigation bar in Firefox. (Had to get instructions from Lifehacker.com to get rid of them in Tiger. At least Vista gave me an obvious on-screen control to use.)

Aug 9th 2008 2:43AM Great news! I wonder how hard it would be to write plug-ins for Pidgin and Adium?
Thank you for posting this.

You say "marginalizing or ghettoizing" as if zoning is an improvement. That's not something I agree with. This isn't SimCities On-line.
You do make a very good point about LL and past enforcement. I wonder what M has in mind?
This brings up past questions of whom M and Mitch Kapor think LL's future customers will be?

Jul 16th 2008 12:38AM Well, there's also an OS X version, but if you're asking about WINE then I suppose that won't help you.
Blogging into Mordor: Finding the perfect name for your Dwarf

Jul 10th 2008 5:51PM 'According to Turbine, common suffixes for dwarf names are "-ori, -óin, -íli, -alin, -orin, -osi, -imli, and -ormur"'
It has been my experience that I cannot enter an accented character such as 'ó' in the name of a player character in LotRO.
Will Kapor bore? Rumors say sale!
