Bit by bit, I’ve been tackling my list of places to visit (and stumbling upon other places, like Aerobreeze, through the Showcase tab). Last night, I finally visited Pteron. What a marvel it is.
I learned of Pteron after coming across this weblog entry in a reader: Nika Dreamscape’s list of best places. This monochromatic build dazzles [...]

One of the things I love about SL is the art and the immense creativity inworld. So many times, I hadn’t the opportunity to see art installations that were on display for a limited period of time. Gazira Babeli’s “Hammering the Void” is the most recent build that I missed, and I truly regret missing it. Because in searching for [...]
AeroBreeze

Last night, I checked out the Showcase tab and in the list of Hot Spot locations, randomly clicked on AeroBreeze. I am so glad I did. From what I saw, AeroBreeze is a little gem of a build, reminiscent in many ways of Chouchou’s grounds.
The seasons co-exist beautifully on the beaches in AeroBreeze. In the photo above, snow falls [...]

The nuances in the title “Master Class” were tailor made for Shenlei Flashheart (Shenlei Winkler in RL): entrepreneur, innovator, fashion designer, and now an author. (As a friend and as someone who curates one of Shenlei’s programs, I have to take this moment to say…well, really, to scream: OMG SHENLEI! CONGRATULATIONS!!!).
Shenlei is CEO of the RL [...]
Pre Un-Rezzable

Like probably everyone, a couple of days ago, I heard news that Rezzable is leaving SL. Unlike probably everyone, I had not yet made my way beyond Crimson Shadow to two other popular Rezzable builds: The Carnival of Doom and the Greenies.
While I have heard of Rezzable a great deal in SL, I was never entirely clear what Rezzable was. [...]
Bam! A Neko Robot

What’s a Fourth of July celebration without the attention grabber of a Neko Robot, I ask you. Well, there was a spectacular one at one of the friendliest, most easy going clubs inworld.
The music was great, the conversation easy-going and good natured, and I was transfixed, stuck on the look of this incredible AV…not only on the [...]
