The new SL Thingy....

SL has got a bit of a social network being built into their online profiles.  Complete with a feed (kind of like the wall in facebook) the ability to alter your profile while not being inworld, interests that recommend people you may like and some other various goodies.

Here is the login page.

Of course some people are really hating this and screaming it invades their privacy.  They do this even though there are privacy controls built into it so you can set it to where nearly everything can only be visible to people inworld or to nobody at all.  The only things that show up regardless are their name (which they have to have to find the profile in the first place), born on date and whether or not they have payment info on file.  Things you couldn't get rid of inworld anyways.

I'm using mine to full effect.  Got all but one option cranked up to 'everybody' on the privacy setting just to see how it turns out.  My main use of it will most likely be to keep in contact with My Mistress and my sister since I can't get inworld that much anymore.  If anybody wants to drop by it and say hello please do so.

Here is my profile thingy.

Oh also according to Rodvik Linden they haven't named the whole thing yet and it's still very much in the beta/testing/changing stage.  So my name for it is simply the 'Thingy' until they come up with one for it. 

In a post maybe tomorrow or the next day I'm thinking of coming up with a list of changes/additions/tweaks that I would like to see with it.  Maybe even post a link to my list up on Rodviks feed.  Which, by the way, several Lindens have been very active on the Thingy.  Even had one post a reply to one of my comments on my feed.

Fools in chat

 Sometimes I can't help but to be a -gasp- smart ass in chat.  Especially with guys who just open up with this level of discussion.  Names have been omitted... unless someone wants to see them, then I may post up this up unedited.

small changes and wandering....

I've done a few small changes to my avi here in the last few weeks.  Mainly just making it shorter.  I used to be the same hieght as Mistress, which didn't seem to fit.  Especially with some of the dancing poseballs, She would get on the blue one and I would take the pink.  Some dances just didn't seem to match up right.  Along with a lot of cuddling poses also where they are sat up for a larger male and smaller female to be together.  So I dropped myself down a little and it looks better.

Last night I did something unusual.  Usually when I get online I send a message to Mistress even if she is on or not.  Sometimes when she is off she gets an email notification through her phone and log in.  But last night I didn't.  My mood was a bit off and I didn't really want to talk to anybody.  I just wanted to be left alone and to wander around a little.  Something that I did a lot of in the first few months of playing SL.

I wanted that bit of isolation back last night.  I felt bad for not IMing Mistress, but at the same time I needed that alone time inworld.  Really hope she understands, I'm sure she will.

A lot of landmarks are pretty much useless though.  A lot of stores are gone or moved, went to look at an dress shop that I liked and found a gorean village in it's place, thankfully empty at the time
