Razors Unnecessary in Second Life

nobody@vox.com(Kitto Mandala) — Mon, 26 Feb 2007 12:51:59 -0800

One good thing about Second Life, it seems, is that razors are not necessary. That's good, because I've noticed that shaving technology in Real Life is getting worse, not better. Recently I decided to upgrade to the latest in 2007 shaving technol...

nobody@vox.com(Kitto Mandala) — Wed, 31 Jan 2007 16:28:20 -0800

Hey, is anyone working on a Second Life interface to Twitter? Tell me yes, so I don't have to do it myself!!

Second Life: 4D World Wide Web

nobody@vox.com(Kitto Mandala) — Sun, 28 Jan 2007 13:12:23 -0800

A common criticism of Second Life tends to focus on the fact that the experience of being in Second Life is not game-like. Comparing Second Life to World of Warcraft is like comparing an entire city to a movie theater. Sure, the theater is a good ...

Scripting away on the LOracle...

nobody@vox.com(Kitto Mandala) — Tue, 02 Jan 2007 00:41:30 -0800

I haven't blogged recently because my Second Life time has been taken up by this neat little hack I've been working on... I've tinkered with Linden Scripting Language (LSL) in the past, but this is the first significant undertaking I've, well, und...

Kitto's life path

nobody@vox.com(Kitto Mandala) — Fri, 22 Dec 2006 00:35:47 -0800

Ok, after posting about Kitto's alter ego's life path, it's only fair to post about Kitto's. Taking my birthdate of March 1, 2004 (from my Second Life profile), here is my life path: The Life Path 1 suggests that you entered this plane with skil...

Experiencing a Second Life Town Hall event

nobody@vox.com(Kitto Mandala) — Wed, 20 Dec 2006 15:24:14 -0800

Attending live events in Second Life is always a pleasure. If you like pain, that is. With a few exceptions, the handful of large-scale live events I attended have suffered from various problems. Over a year ago, this was a common problem, and sin...

Flickr photos

nobody@vox.com(Kitto Mandala) — Tue, 19 Dec 2006 23:21:08 -0800

More photos from my Second Life travels at my flickr photostream... Kudos to the Snapzilla (aka slpics.com) folks for making it so easy to get snapshots out of Second Life into flickr! I guess I could just as well use the direct upload-by-email t...

blogHUD

nobody@vox.com(Kitto Mandala) — Tue, 19 Dec 2006 18:44:12 -0800

I got this thing called blogHUD yesterday. It's neat because it lets you chat short messages from within Second Life that wind up on a stream-of-consciousness blog over at bloghud.com. All your own messages are shown on a custom page, too. Here's ...

Be careful out there... (cont'd)

nobody@vox.com(Kitto Mandala) — Tue, 19 Dec 2006 16:59:54 -0800

I didn't finish the story last night because it was late, so I neglected to mention how I eventually got out of there... (Read the first part of the story first if you haven't already and come back after.) Eventually after hopping from strange f...

Be careful out there...

nobody@vox.com(Kitto Mandala) — Tue, 19 Dec 2006 00:10:56 -0800

So, there I was, chatting with my good friend Sue Stonebender (also here) about the intricacies of scripting within Second Life, when I innocently asked her if she could tell me, off the top of her head, of a nice quiet place for me to tp (telepo...
