news story" titled Second Life Makes Dream Of Owning Fictitious Coffee Shop Come True.
Jarrett's shop is popular among Second Life regulars for its atmosphere, its 24-hour availability, and its location between the T-Mobile dealership and the 10,000-foot glowing green penis.
Heck, you've probably been there yourself.]]>

BMW Clean Energy Presentationtag:www.secondlifeinformation.com,2007://1.82007-01-17T09:00:00Z2007-01-16T17:51:16ZGreater Goodehttp://www.secondlifeinformation.com/Munich Express from BMW came to BMW World (BMW New World 143, 119, 23) to interact with about thirty SL residents. BMW sees Second Life as an interesting feedback tool, and a platform for marketing and R&D.
I am personally disappointed in BMW's position with regards to hydrogen, where Munich admitted that yes, its perhaps 10 years away, all the stakeholders still need to come together to make it happen, and they haven't worked out how they will actually manufacture hydrogen. Meanwhile, bridge technologies such as plug-in hybrids are sorely under-represented.
All in all, an interesting hang. Despite the guy in the green mohawk with a rather obtrusive male member. I think he got bored.]]>

Giff Constable: 2006 Year in Reviewtag:www.secondlifeinformation.com,2007://1.52007-01-15T01:05:20Z2007-01-16T02:48:22ZGreater Goodehttp://www.secondlifeinformation.com/
year-end review for Second Life. Among many interesting observations, traffic and concurrent users are way up, while US-based users are dropping as a percentage of the whole:
...if you just look at concurrent users, a year ago max concurrent users was around 5 thousand. Today it is around 20 thousand, a 300% growth rate, although still a fairly small pond. An important part of this story is the international expansion of SL: in the spring, 75% of users were from North America. That number is now around 45%, and sign-ups are about 50-50 North America vs. International.
Giff does a great job documenting the major events of the year, including traffic milestones, RL corporate launches, media coverage, grey goo attacks and all the major business players in Second Life. Check it out.]]>
House of Zen: second life extreme makeovertag:www.secondlifeinformation.com,2007:/temp//1.42007-01-14T04:32:56Z2007-01-13T06:49:38ZGreater Goodehttp://www.secondlifeinformation.com/I was feeling Blue and Gold (bring a UCLA alum and all), and we ended up selecting a suit with blue slacks, a two-jacket combo that included a blue one and a rust shirt/tie. "Very swish" said Sasy.
But I wasn't done - nope, I had to have shoes to match. I was sent to FNKY (Cake 120, 39, 24) for the black leather dress shoes. They look pretty nice on the wall, but on me they look like slippers. I changed my socks to rust with some cotton texture, and i think i'm making a fashion statement that's a bit on the edge. Of course, a rainbow furry just walked by, so there you go.
My last stop was to Calla (Plush Kappa 215, 70, 23), where I got some free hair. My natty light brown dreads felt a little out of place, what with the suit and all.
Summary: I spent an hour of time and L$1500 (about US$6) to receive a Second Life Extreme Makeover. Thanks, Sasy!]]>
