Last night the SL9B opened for the bloggers/press, giving us the opportunity to explore and take pics before the crowds come in, something I really appreciate. Unfortunately I did not have the time last night, but today I took some hours off work and hurried over to have a look around! I went to see…

Kayaking @ Mojo Surf Point
Of all the activities and sports you can do in Second Life, I don’t think I have ever gotten into a kayak. And since there is a first time for everything, I could not resist trying it out on Mojo Surf Point when I went there to check this new beach out. They offer, besides…
Imperial Autumn
Yeah I know. It is only the 1st of September and maybe we will get a bit of summer after all the rain, but I felt the urge to redecorate ImperiuM Island today and get ready for Autumn! With a bit of the mini-flu left (I apparently brought a nasty virus with me from the…
Artarra
This afternoon I visited Artarra (A) – a sim filled with flowers, trees, birds and surrounded by huge snowy mountains. A lovely place to hangout and explore. There is, besides the meadows filled with colourful flowers also a cave and a tropical-jungle-like beach. It started raining when I was there, figures! But luckily I was…
The Pixel Bean Coffeehouse
Last night, just before I was going to try to get some dinner (I still can’t chew without pain, so I am not looking forwards to eating..), I got an IM from Don. He and his friends were sitting and chatting in their hangout ‘The Pixel Bean Coffeehouse’ and listening to Amy Winehouse songs. If…
SL8B – This volunteer is ready….!
It took me a while, thinking on how to dress up my avatar to be a proper, recognizable Volunteer for the SL8B, as we got a t-shirt and a top hat (gah!) to wear. Being an Android….t-shirt?! Hm! Anyways, off I went to +DV8+ again and got the pink and purple version of my new…
Let the sun shine….!
Today I finally got some inspiration to make a summer beach on ImperiuM Island – in the NW Corner of the sim..I have been meaning to do this for weeks! Luckily Ratt had some time as well, and he helped me getting a sandy beach (with a sculpt), he made a nice picnic-table in ImperiuM…
Twitter Cnuts
There is Twitter, there are nuts…:p…and now there is this website called: Twitter Cnuts! What does it do? Although the site itself says you can use it to ‘stalk‘ tweeps (people who twitter) I found it a nice tool to follow some conversations. Specially when you are not a follower of all participants in a…
A night in the dojo
Some days are less exciting than others….today was a day without any adventures, but some nice chats and fights in our dojo. Oh well, I guess life must have its quiet days as well :)
Radio silence
So. This morning at 9AM (GMT +1) the official Second Life Forums went into stealth mode; you can still read the posts, but you cannot reply or post anymore. This is because LL is implementing a new ‘community platform’, which will replace the current blogs and forums. I can live without the forums for a…
And it was about time…
..for a lovely Saturdaynight-dance :)
Wut? Hey…you?
With the introduction of display-names in Viewer 2, people can now change their name into something more suitable to their liking. Caitlin has done this too, her name will show as Caitlin “Caity” Tobias for those who have display-names enabled. People call her Caity, which is fine! Now, last night I was looking at my…

Being an ESL’er in Second Life
Yes, I am an ESL’ er (English as Second Language) and I love language! My first language is Dutch, then comes English…then a gap….French…a bigger gap and then German. In Second Life I only speak English, which makes sense as I rarely meet Dutch people (don’t ask me why, but for some reason I just…
An Imperial Picnic
Sometimes, with all my travels through Second Life, I almost forget what a lovely sim ImperiuM Island is! I go to all kinds of places and enjoy the rest of world a lot, but every now and then it is just perfect to sit down on our own sim, chat the night away with friends…
And a Jazzy ending..
.. of the weekend :)
