Being in the middle during a new era

Its crazy, what got me started was an email I just received. But we really are in the middle of everything going down. When me and Jen joined Second Life the most people online were 1,000 at one time, and maybe 200k residents. Now its over 9 million accounts (many alts) with 30-40k on at any time.

Theres stores all over, people making money in a video game cause they don't have a real life job, and countless stories about the little man finding his nitch in second life and coming out ahead. fortune 500 companies paying people like us to build them advertisement in the world, professors teaching, and charaties like the walk for breast cancer, and others like the Boomer Esiason video we did for Cystic Fibrosis. And here we are, smack dab in the middle of it.

The email was from Harold again, regarding the South Hampton lecture. Someone cannot show for a spot that was before or after NSS's, so he's giving me and Jen a full hour, and would like us to be there considering our topic, and how it would be much better in person than via internet distorting the content. Anyways, still have to talk it over with Jen on how we'll do this considering before it was just me and a mire 30 mins , but it will be a fully paid for trip, and only 3 and 1/2 hours away.

I'm back to days now, so ill probably be blogging more again. Course papers turned in so now its just studying. Think i'll try and dish out another fun video we've been working on for the hell of it while I continue to wait on Second Life to release Wind Light and begin filming the series.

ALSO this weekend I finally took the time and posed all the products I built in Second life, on Second Life Exchange which can be viewed HERE
