Beach Etiquette in Second Life (C) - Stareyes Galaxy Reporting


One of the great features of Second Life © (SL) is that no matter what the real life (RL) weather, you can pack a rucksack and go to the beach.

At the many beaches of SL, it is possible to relax, swim, do watersports, and socialize with friends or previously unknown avatars. Beaches come in all categories, “G”, “M”, and “A”, and it may be confusing as to what is expected of a beach visitor at locations tagged with one category or the other. Stareyes Galaxy trekked some of the beach resorts to find out what the beach etiquette is and how it is observed in SL.

I started with beaches that advertise clothed-only policies. Kona Beach one beautiful location with surfboarding and big waves in the sea set as a curved beach. I met Glowdiamond, an ardent sunbather and asked her a few questions.

Postcard from Paris 1900’s – The Beautiful Era - Glossom reporting ....


Dear friends,

I must confess that I thought I may fear the time machine, but I did not!   The buzzing and shaking of the machine did not cause the anticipated apprehension but rather an intense excitement and eagerness to have a new fascinating place right in front of my eyes. Destination: Paris 1900’s, The City of Light.

The Legend of the RMS Titanic in Second Life- Orchids Reports



“Though she sank in 1912 the RMS Titanic lives on in the minds of millions. Movies have been made, Museums erected, books have been written... 


Within Second Life you are only limited by your imagination. Come join us sometime on the Ship of Dreams, as she floats upon an ocean of memories...”

Titanic –“gigantic” takes its origins in Greek Mythology. The “RMS Titanic” or the Royal Mail Ship (RMS) indicated that she carried mail under contract with the Royal Mail. It was an Olympic-class ocean liner built at Belfast, Ireland; the largest vessel of the British shipping company White Star Line's fleet.

SL TOS a storm in a teacup? - Lacy Muircastle reporting ....

Is it all just a storm in a tea cup, or is it far more ominous than that .... Recently much has been written in various blogs and in various forums about the latest changes to the Second Life TOS by Linden Labs and in some cases the reaction to these changes have been to the detriment of the Second Life community at large, most notably is the recent resignation of Bryn Oh from the Linden Endowment for the Arts committee. Bryn, who is a brilliant artist and content creator in her own right, but who also has been an advocate for other budding artists and content creators in SL is quoted as saying  "After the new TOS came out I had to decide if I still felt comfortable being associated with the LEA, not the members but rather the concept.  One thing I do in both first life and Second Life is try to convince artists that they and their art are worth something.  You see, artists are quite often taken advantage of.  Anyway, long story short I have decided to resign from the Linden Endowment for the Arts due to the current TOS."

Have you ever considered what your avatar does when you log off?  Strawberry Singh poses the question in her latest meme challenge.  Many of you will know Strawberry Singh as a brilliant SL photographer and avid blogger. She runs regular meme challenges and this weeks Monday Meme struck a chord, so I decided to share it with those of you who do not subscribe to her blog.
Go on have a bit of fun with this challenge:

Avenue Autumn/ Winter Fashion Week Ended October 5th- BLVCK ANCHOR Review- Tea Couturier Reporting...


This was an invited only event due to its popularity. The place was packed out with buyers/owners from other stores to just journalist/ bloggers, The who’s who of the fashion world, who were all awaiting the Autumn/Winter collection from BLVCK ANCHOR.


For those who are not familiar with Blvck Anchor, Blvck Anchor specializes in menswear influenced by the laid back fashions of the American West Coast. Whether it's L.A. street swagger or Oregon hipster chic, this line takes casual coolness and injects it with masculine confidence.

Firing Employees on Second Life©-It's Not Personal, It's Business- Nomad Aries Reporting…


 

The firing of employees on Second Life© seems to be a law unto itself. There is no set protocol for firing an employee for incompetence or any other offense.
 
In the real world or at least where I live, there are set laws and procedures that must be adhered to before and during the process of firing an employee. Not so , in the virtual world. On Second Life©, the firing of an employee, the reasons for it and how it is done is strictly up to the owner or manager of a business. This is surprising to me to be honest. If you are going to run a business venture on SL or be part of an organization, you will inevitably have to fire someone at some point in time.

What is Second Life™ All About? – Stareyes Galaxy reporting ...


We all have our reasons for being on Second Life ™ (SL). Some of us are online 24/7, some less frequently, interacting with other avatars, or sitting quietly in a cozy corner listening to music. Stareyes Galaxy chatted with avatars from all around the globe asking the deceptively simple question. “What is SL all about?”

One of the first avatars I talked with was from Egypt. “Second Life has a special meaning for us Egyptians,” she said – and then it really dawned on me what that is. Ancient Egyptians preserved the bodies of the deceased for their journey to the great beyond. Second Life today of course is concurrent with our real lives (RLs), and The Second Life Enquirer regularly runs features on the parallelisms between SL and RL. I went to clubs and other popular spots to get answers, and here is what I was able to find out.

Paris Obscur is certainly not your usual performer in Second Life. He is one of the rare artists who performs originals only (no covers) and manages to get a numerous and loyal crowd at his shows.




These very unique moments are more than a list of songs performed the one after the other : Paris Obscur loves to talk about the lyrics of his songs, all forming a complex story including many different characters, each with a very detailed personality.
