Just another SecondLifeKid weblog. Did Business Insider get it right? August 2nd, 2014 by Marianne McCann. There’s been a lot of discussion about a recent Business Insider article on Second Life. They did or not — set out with an agenda. The article itself reads like so many SL hit pieces, after all. All that said, this article points to a lot of the troubles with the new user experience. She complains about the “beginner world, then about ending up in a. Still, this is. No, I doubt it. Instead, we s...

Just another SecondLifeKid weblog. February 25th, 2014 by Marianne McCann. Welcome to Linden Lab. Ebbe I hope you have a long and successful career. First off, I have to welcome you. I read that you have had some experience with Second Life. My name is Marianne McCann. Many people, as I’m sure you noticed, will be asking for your attention, for all sorts of issues. Heck, there’s already a parody Twitter account dedicated just to all the things folks might feel you need to do. That said, I. Was closed....

Just another SecondLifeKid weblog. The kindness of strangers. April 10th, 2014 by Marianne McCann. I feel like this entry is practically a fashion entry — though it’s not really my best “fashion” photo above — so I will indeed add a “style card” at the bottom. You can click it to see the photo at a larger size. While I am sporting a whole lot of attire from the April round of Collabor88. And other current events, this post is actually more about the kindness of one of the designers for same. I’ve b...

Just another SecondLifeKid weblog. You Know, For Kids… 2.0. April 5th, 2015 by Marianne McCann. This site is being moved: please go to https:/ mariannemccann.wordpress.com/. One of my big projects this year has been redoing my toy store, You Know, For Kids. I started it back in mid-2006, when I was still a fairly new Second Life. And with my own “retro” product line. With the first part of this in mind, I’ve moved to the E2V Vendor system. The overall interior “motif” of the space is mid-cent...Of course...

Just another SecondLifeKid weblog. Looking back on my little part of 2013. December 27th, 2013 by Marianne McCann. Out on the Solstice. In looking back at 2013, one really can just note that — not including this one — I managed to get a whopping two blog entries up here within the year. It’s just been that kind of year. I helped get the Second Life tenth anniversary community celebration. Most noted was my SL10B History Walk. This wasn’t the only big event for me this year: at Burn2. The annual Mole Day ...

Just another SecondLifeKid weblog. July 26th, 2010 by Marianne McCann. Sorry, it’s tl;dr! Next one will be shorter and less serious – honest! It’s June 9th. And I’m working on my build for SL7B, the annual celebration of Second Life’s birthday. It’s an event where we celebrate making it another year, and look to the horizon. While I put the finishing touches on the oversized toys that made up the Unexpected Childhood build. I think of friends lost:. Blue, the big ol’ dragon-ish monster who helped d...

Just another SecondLifeKid weblog. June 22nd, 2014 by Marianne McCann. Empires of the mind. Picture this. Here we all are, in a virtual metaverse that exited its initial beta eleven years ago. It started as the Rig, a simple virtual world for testing haptics technology for Linden Research. Then, it was LindenWorld, where people terraformed with grenades and watched ators eat birds. 8220;The Empires of the Future are the empires of the mind.” At Sl11B we are showing our siblings in this metavers...And at ...

Just another SecondLifeKid weblog. A Child of the Corn. July 24th, 2014 by Marianne McCann. So I’ve been spending some time in The Cornfield. A new project by Linden Lab’s Linden Department of Public Works within Second Life . But before I talk on that, a word or two about the Linden Realms Portal Park. That leads into the Cornfield, as well as The Wilderness. Magellan’s Grid Scavenger Hunt. The Portal Park is what the portal on the “social Island” should have been. It’s not the easiest game in the...
