SL on Xbox?
Earlier this week I came across this blog entry by Dusan Writer which talks about a placeholder found on the official Second Life website at the URL - http://search.secondlife.com/.
placeholder page for XBOX, PS3, and iPhone versions of client when they launch next real soon now
However if you visit the site now it says
placeholder for search
So, what’s the deal? Well here’s what I think what happened
- LL is working on an XBOX 360, PS3 and iPhone version of Second Life and someone in the departments placed the wrong placeholder at the URL instead of a placeholder for an offline search engine for Second Life
- A PR Stunt
- An employee who was bored and decided to have some fun without realising that it would be noticed
However if LL is working on a client for the Xbox, PS3 and iPhone then I will be happy for two reasons. I Have an Xbox AND an iPod touch. For those who don’t know the iPhone/iPod touch has the same operating system and hardware (minus the phone, camera and soon to be GPS) meaning it would work on the iPod as well.
On the Xbox and PS3 you can talk via a microphone or keyboard (at least on the 360 you can). Also the whole Flycam features that are coming soon could in theory work well with Second Life. Not to mention that they are dedicated systems for gaming making Second Life be smooth and free of system lag (sim lag will probably still occur).
Although this may never happen I think it would be awesome if it did. Here’s to hoping that the almighty lindens are working on it 
Forbes Guy…
Everyone is talking about this idiot at Forbes who seems to be moaning about the “economic crisis” in Second Life. So as i write this i am going to be watching this video and telling you my thoughts on this.
After Post Note - WHY is there so many advertisements just to watch one freaking 300 second video
Note 1 - Gambling was NOT shut down months ago, only the advertising of it
Note 2 - It is not one of the only ways to earn an income in Second Life, theres clothing, building, entertainment such as Live Music, DJing, sadly the Sex industry which may become a target next as everyone is rumouring. Theres owning land and profiting from that along with rentals. Theres all sorts of other methods for earning an income in Second Life.
Note 3 - Why is “most of things going into sex”. BECAUSE THE MEDIA HYPED IT TO BE A SEX CRAZED WORLD!!!!
Note 4 - You may have spent a lot of time in the world but WHERE DID YOU SPEND TIME (sorry the rant mode is ON)
Note 5 - I think the corporate businesses are already losers because they ultimately have made their purpose boring and dead. Sure the openings are filled but they offer absolutely nothing after it. Stuff like Woodstock which was a homegrown effort gained popularity for what it was and has shown that sex and gambling is everything when it is not. People tipped the artists like crazy and because i was once married to someone in a sex club i can tell you the artists EARNED up to 10 times more in one fucking hour than those sex club workers. L$1000 for an hour night in some cases compared to L$10,000 for an hour shows the POWER of other places.
Note 6 - Of course its stupid to have a washing machine in Second Life. You don’t need to wash your clothes in Second Life and also it does nothing. Washing machines that eat an avatar up and spins them round for 10 seconds is far more intresting than that
Note 7 - World of Warcraft firstly is a waste of time. I spent about 10 hours and was more bored of the newbies going around saying stuff like “TRAD WTIH M3 B4 I KIL YOU” on a server which people don’t fight each other…only the monsters/creatures. Also do you hear live music in WoW? Do you actually have fun? Has anyone died playing Second Life on a 57 hour spree? No is the answer!
Note 8 - How is Mario Kart and Second Life related? Pre - Made cars which you can change a color to blue, red, white etc. ?

That felt good to rant, I don’t do that often

What to do when the grid is down?
I have been so bored out of my head today with the Grid being down most of the time when i am available. I really should have done some improvements to my blog, and i did plan it but i kinda lazed off watching YouTube videos and going on a good ol’ browse through the tubes. So heres a Thriller Video by Micheal Jackson played in Second Life.
