A home for a nome

Premuim members of sl can pick a home for free.

Yes, the stories of free land comes to my mind. I'm not old enough to have seen them first hand, but I remember the stories of how sl members got the land for free.
At that time it was new territory sl was. Now you can get a free home if you've signed up for the premuim membership.

I think there are strings attached.

In the meantime, I'm gonna look for a nice castle to live in. Some of the themes available are Japan style homes, loft style homes, A frame homes, quads, and fantasy type homes. I just wish I could build my cookie jar there and put a skybox in the sky.
The homes are too close for that though. I may end up with a hobbit's themed home.

All homes are not furnished and you can't pick a home next to your friend's home.

They are in mature sims as well, so be aware there will be kid avies mixed in as well.

The SLC moved thier tree to just in front of the Vortex.

Gemini says there will be more stuff the SLC (Second Life Children) will be doing in the future. The new place, which is a old place according to the SLC elders, also has the famous tree house. The place offers a stage for future events. a renovated tree house for story time, arcade games, the adult to kid avie transmogrifier box and the info on kid avies as always.

Speaking of avies, I'm into a website called Avatars United (AU). It's a myspace for avatars of online games. Games like Wolrd of Warcraft, Eve, SL, etc.

There's a thing to it though. Linden Labs, owners of SL, have bought AU.
Reasons have yet to be said, to me anyway. Now people can hook up for anything here.
And it also has a neat little hud in world that acts like a Twitter hud.
It was created by a resident and it lets you post stuff to your profile like where your at and what your doing at the moment. It's called Blip and I just blipped that I was blogging and left my blogg addy.

And that brings me to my next topic: Second Love. Second Love was created by a
resident also, a fellow kid/teen avie in fact. It's a 2 part hud that you pick up here: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Whippersnapper/160/155/22 for free. It's still getting the bugs worked out right now. It offers four options: Friendship, Romance, Sex and Adoption. All of which should not be confused with the others.

That's about it for now.

Back

I'm back. I've been lazy as far as the blog goes.

Lots of different things have happened since my last post.
Lots of things happened even before the last post. Stuff like Torley being moved or "re-assinged" to another dept. That's why he hasn't posted anymore tutorials in-world.
The Menters group had been disbanded.

More stuff coming up.
