Under The Grid - Building a simple bot in ironpython
Second Life Insider
May 26th 2007 6:16AM Awesome article A++ would read again. While there is no formal support process for libsecondlife, other than our bug tracking system, expect some major changes over the next few months. Good changes, mind you.
Voice Redux
Second Life Insider
Mar 8th 2007 3:59PM In the education and business environment, voice is a much sought after feature. Looking at existing synchronous web based learning platforms, they all have voice. That being said, it will make a huge difference to some of the long term residents to whom the image is important.
I have heard stories of There, and I hope it doesn't come to that in Second Life. Personally, I will make heavy use of voice, however I won't ignore the keyboard. Last night I was in Lusk on the preview grid with others in the voice chat system, but I wasn't speaking due to roomates being asleep. When I would respond to things being said by typing (I type fast enough to keep up), often they would go unnoticed.
I joked at one point that "This is what it must feel like in There". But nobody laughed.
Nobody Fugazi - the sim destroyer
Second Life Insider
Mar 4th 2007 11:05AM Depending who I am demonstrating Second Life to, I generally include a quick drop into a random First Land ghetto. Sometimes it's where our original plot was in Seopophang (moved out after two clubs made it impossible to get work done), maybe where our office was in Manduca (where there was a giant pot leaf in the background from day one). Or just a random sim that looks appropriate.
The mainland is a mess, and it's solely due to the lack of planning (zoning) by the powers that be. Does that mean I want to them to step in and start zoning ? No, but I would like to see the sort of tools to allow the community to enforce their own zoning ideals in the appropriate regions.
