Here’s a days work!

Visit Hawthorne (10, 97, 34)
Doing serif fonts in SL with the basic prim set - well, yeah, it sucks. Recreating my home town’s most iconic art piece? Priceless. Love Park has become an icon nation wide for skateboarders and tourists at 15th and Ben Franklin.

There are times in VR where you realize certain things.

Visit Olive (41, 225, 42)
I sit here…
…next to one of my best friends.
I sit here…

Linden Lab announces new CEO

Mark Kingdon will be the new CEO. More to follow, but here’s the basics:
Mark was formerly the CEO of the Omnicom Group, which, IIRC, was Organic. I worked with them back in my CDnow days, when Organic was our ad agency. I’m happy that this hire is from outside the walls of Linden Lab, but […]
