Teengrid merged with Maingrid


Last night Terrence Linden announced in his blog, they were busy transferring the teens and their lands to the Maingrid. A while ago I sent out the official statement of The ImperiuM Katana on teens in Second Life and them being welcome in our Dojo, as we are one of the few C:si Clans that…

Online Social Media – how scary!


Since the introduction, or even before, of the web-based profiles in Second Life which include buttons to connect your Second Life to your Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn account, lots of discussions are going on on the many SL fora I read. Although I can be considered a ‘heavy user’ of all those online social media…

A visit to Ishida Clan


Last night, after I finally got a bit more energy and felt my weekend sinking in…I went for a visit to Omi no Kuni, the home of the Ishida Clan. The sim is a bit empty at the moment. Well a bit. It’s empty. But the Ishida Samurai were having some nice fights anyway. Apparently…

Bladerunner City


Travelling across the grid…this time I ended up in an Art Colony called : Bladerunner City. A huge art installation, with many amazing builds and in a lovely sci-fi setting. Not the Bladerunner one would expect from the movies, but worth a visit and please take the time to explore! I like the atmosphere and…

Well Crap – 2


Am back in Holland after some very busy days in the United Kingdom. When I returned last night, with a delayed flight, meh, I just did not have the energy to login and see what I missed in Second Life. Today another long and tedious day in the office, hence no access to SL. And…

Brighten up!


Somewhere there’s someone who dreams of your smile, and finds in your presence that life is worth while. So when you are lonely, remember it’s true Somebody somewhere is thinking of you.. Or what also works, well it does for me, go visit a colorful epic place in Second Life to brighten up the day…

Things to do in a hotelroom


So, I am travelling for work again, to the always friendly and not so sunny United Kingdom! Second Life on my Macbook is possible, for chats only…I cannot fight on that keyboard, besides that the maccie gets too hot when fighting anyway. So I usually spend my evenings in the hotel surfing the web a…

KLM


When this post will go live, I will probably sit in a KLM plane on my way for a business travel, given if there is no delay. Anyway, I recently visited the Airfrance-KLM Museum in Second Life, not a very impressive museum..and maybe the word ‘museum’ is a bit too much, but it was fun…

On my way!


The coming days I will be travelling for real-life work, so won’t be in world or online much :(. But! Thanks to WordPress’ amazing feature of  blogging in the future…I have prepared some blog posts for this week and they will pop online automatically, so I can keep up with the challenge of  ‘post a…

Little Red Riding Hood


A while ago I posted a machinima, movie made in Second Life, by Toxic Menges about the Water Horse. This morning, while browsing YouTube, I stumbled across a new movie made by Toxic: Little Red Riding Hood. You really have to watch it…it’s absolutely amazing and funny too, but maybe not suitable as a bedtime…

Annon, The Gate


Via the SL Destination Guide (what would I do without it!!) I discovered a beautiful sim, Annon. It has several amazing castles. The one I liked most is The Gate. An impressive monastery built on a rock, surrounded by waves (a bit too noisy to my taste), populated with seals and seagulls and huge waterfalls….

Sway’s


On one of my travels I found a lovely small square, surrounded by little shops selling furniture (home & hobby), clothing (dressed), teddy bears (cookie bears) and animations (swAyNimations) called: SwayLand. I found out all shops are from the same creator, Sway Dench, who really makes lovely and original creations of all sorts! I had…

Meanwhile in the Dojo…


While busy working in RL, I parked Cait on a bench in the Dojo, so she could watch H and Uri spar :). I like watching spars when doing other stuff, it’s kind of relaxing in a weird way. The clinging sounds of the blades, the bloodsplashes..hehe! Of course I was distracted for a moment…
