Second Life 4

After longer pause when I had to devote to RL, the new contribution is coming. It will be small review of one project that is closely connected with Second Life. I don’t have to urge anybody how Second Life is extensive in a sense of its area or of number of active or inactive SL residents. Just read Economic Statistic Report and everybody can imagine it. Such a huge space is overfilled by all possible information that to obtain, to find or to handle their bigger part is absolutely impossible. The communication either personal or by force of the different interest groups has to be main and motive motor inside SL. Every avatar is certainly a member of some group and he/she usually receives different type of information, e.g. notice about taking place of some event like an exhibition, a wedding, a party, etc. It could be also a message that is highly important for the group members.
However, the limited number of groups in avatar profile doesn’t achieve to register bigger amount of information. Further possibility is a usage of Search inside of SL. It has not to be easy to handle this technique. Sometimes it is difficult to obtain relevant information, even if the system of SL Search is same as whichever known searching in Internet. However, I think that the system of bookmarks for search in categories and subcategories is high sophisticated to successful finding of anything in SL Search. In RL, except the classical media – newspapers, journals or TV – also Internet is important source of information about SL. First of all, the specialized blogs purvey much information about that, what is happening in SL.
I would like to introduce to you just one of such blogs or many blogs, respectively, how I will explain later. First, how do I found this project? It was coincidentally also through one blog. It was published in article about Ancapistan Capital Exchange (ACE) at www.secondlife.cz. Since this exchange seemed interesting for me, so I started to trade, but about that other time perhaps. I found the following hyperlink The Second Life News Paper (SLNP) at ACE web presentation. SLNP is a virtual daily about SL. Avatar JamesT Juno is founder and CEO and his SL partner Dana Vanmoer is co-foundress. These two together with team of realization (20 persons) created the most read newspaper in SL. Although SLNP is classical web homepage, the individual sections have the blog feature. And which specifically:

Finance – The business world of Second Life
People – All about the people columns, interviews and newbie tips
Explore – Place to see, things to do in our amazing new world
Events – Articles about events that have taken plus news on upcoming
Design – Fashion news plus all about things that have been created
M.A.C.E. – Music, Arts, Culture and Entertainment
Red Light – A heaving industry in SL, but where should you go?
Extra Extra – Mostly fictional stories and columns plus occasional PR

As I said, each of these sections is blog. So, if you use RSS service, you have no problem to be informed in time. You can visit main office here.
