Teen Metaverse

In order to comply with Linden Lab’s new trademark policy, this blog has been renamed to Teen Metaverse. Please update your bookmarks and feed readers and such. If anyone actually subscribes to this thing anyway, that is…

Oh, and hello. I run this blog. I just never told anyone. Lucky Figtree also runs it.

Leaving Second Life, and unfortunately, the blog too

This is not some attention grabbing scheme since no one cares. Also, I’m not going to write some glamorous goodbye letter. By “leaving” I mean playing much, much less, as in vary rarely. Concerning the blog:

TSLB will now be run by Lucky Figtree. Also, paid writers will not be paid anymore, but may continue to write if they wish.

I will be gone by Monday (03/24/08) once I take care of everything; my online status will be hidden immediately to everyone except those I consider very close friends. I am really deeply sorry and grieved that I must leave the blog, after so much that I accomplished in Second Life, my store, my friends, the blog, and various unreleased scripts and builds. My decision to leave came to me very suddenly and many people were surprised. I will still remain an administrator of the blog, only I will be inactive. I will hopefully do a “final post” later this week, most likely it will be a photo montage. Concerning my return:

I will MOST LIKELY return next year, or when an All Ages Area opens up. I MIGHT return when Mono is released to the live grid. I WILL return before I transfer to the Main Grid.

The last thing I want to say to everyone is: Thank you, please keep the blog alive, comment, discuss, *cough*become a free writer*cough*, be friends, don’t ban each other from your lands because of what happens here, and finally, good bye.

Philip Rosedale resigning his role as CEO of Linden Lab?

Hey everyone, I’ve recently received some sad news. Apparently Philip Rosedale, the CEO of Linden Lab is stepping down from his role as the CEO. You can read the full story here.
According to this article, Philip is stepping down due to all the tasks and job a CEO of a company as large as Linden Lab has become, and will become - it wasn’t the job that he wanted to be doing. After talking to Blue for a short minute after I read the article, he assured me that Philip will not be leaving Linden Lab, and they’re already trying to find someone to replace him. With the recent leave of Cory Linden from the team, and now step-down of Philip it’s even harder to tell you what the future for Second Life looks like.

I’m leaving this article up to discussion with you guys, please read the article I’ve posted and discuss your opinions in the comment section!!

Elite Qin

Hey, everyone! I’m Elitesniper223 Qin, but you can call me E. I’ve been playing Second Life since March of 2005, and I’ve spent a good amount of time on both the Main and Teen grids. To give you some idea of how long I’ve been playing, I remember when 100,000 accounts was a lot. Now, what does this have to do with you? Nothing! But what does this have to do with me? It means that I’ve been through a lot. In fact, here are my qualifications (many of which contradict the others.): Read the rest of this entry »

Hello

I’m MinionTaurus Gupte a new blogger here on TSLB. I hope to blog about random events that occur that I feel have importance. First off, I would like to throw my person SL blog out there. I am a cheap-o and it is on a blogger account. Not very professional of me, but shh. aes.© blog is the blog. I will mainly be using it to advertise aesthetic products. And anything I find of super important interest.

Hi!

Chilko Tardis here, the newest member of the Teen Second Life Blog team. I’ve got a ton of experience in TSL, more than 2 years now, so I’m going to be focusing on interviews with notable people, so I’m going to be calling this column, “Notables”. That will be my regular thing, along with some other general things. Perhaps, “The Grid Weekly” describing the weekly economic and social news.Whatever I do, I’m very happy to be here, and hope to contribute in as many ways as I can!

Temporary Theme

We had to change over to this ugly theme temporarily so that we can pick anew one, due to formatting errors the last one caused.

TSLB Supports Atticus Tech

For those of you that are not in Atticus Tech’s group, here is the scoop:In an group announcement, Syn Swindlehurst said:

Recently ‘Atticus Dassin’ has contacted us saying we’re copying a company he created back in 2005, but because of his computer he was unable to play SL and create groups and such. So there might be some legal issues with Atticus Tech for awile, if this guy really tries to make us close Atticus Tech, we’ll need to get a Linden involved, so if you support Atticus Tech, and really want us to stay here, and not be taken over by some guy give ‘Atticus Dassin’ an IM and just express your support for Atticus Tech.

We at TSLB are in full support of Atticus Tech.
