Årets födelsedagstema: The magic of Second Life

Den 23 juni (en dag då min primatar kommer att befinna sig ute i den stockholmska skärgården istället för in world) fyller SL officiellt 8 år.


Men redan imorgon öppnar SL8B och pågår hela veckan. Programmet är omfattande.

Spanning 21 sims with over 700 contributors, over 300 exhibits, over 300 live performers and speakers with special speeches from Philip and Rod Linden, SL8B is a showcase for the accomplishments and content of all SL residents, celebrating the “life” of Second Life.

On June 23, 2011, Second Life will be officially eight years old. Our hard-working team of Resident volunteers and Lindens have been busily preparing for our annual birthday bash—laying down the groundwork (literally) for you to celebrate. It started 8 years ago as a parade through mainland sims, with Philip Linden giving a speech over their newly connected media stream. Each subsequent year it has become more elaborate, more spacious, more compelling as the technology of Second Life has increased and the creativity of the residents has bloomed. Enjoy with us this year live musicians and DJs, exhibits, media-on-prim, and machinima.

The event kicks off at 10:30 a.m. SLT on Monday, June 20 and runs through Sunday, June 26 with a glittering assortment of musicians, speakers, artists, business leads, media mavens, merchants, social organizers, and other amazing Residents like you.We’ll be keeping the 20-region site open for another week, so you’re welcome to come and tour the builds at your leisure. We’ll officially close the gates on Saturday, July 2 at 11:59 p.m. SLT.



Important Dates:

June 20—10:30 a.m. SLT: Gates open to the public for the opening ceremonies. Scripts and build disabled throughout estates for the duration of opening ceremonies to discourage instances of lag and disruption. They will be turned back on after the opening speech.

Apmel hade skaffat sig ett presskort och tänkte passa på att i lugn och ro undersöka området innan öppningen.


Nu gjorde laggen redan före publinanstormningen det stört omöjligt att göra några rundturer. Man får hoppas att det löser sig till invigningen. Läs också: Lag at SL8B–What you can do about it


Det otroligt fula "välkomstområdet" lockar annars till att snabbt försöka förflytta sig till andra delar av området. Ett tips är att använda länkarna nedan.
