My Tiny Life
No, I'm not back yet. Just ran across a quick bit of news over at Boing Boing, and thought it was worth sharing. Julian Dibbell's My Tiny Life is now available in PDF format as a free download from Lulu.com. Basically, it's the story of one man's brief visit (he was only there three months, a major bone of contention for some of his detractors) to the venerable old online world of LambdaMOO. And, despite the text-only environment, you'll see more than a little in common with MOO's conceptual offspring, free-form online worlds like Second Life. The technology may have changed, but the culture is more or less the same. Well worth a read.

Shiny #3

Hey, look, another one. Happy rez-day to me. Oh, and happy New Year to everyone else.

Folks, I think I'm going on hiatus until I find some way to feel like I'm part of SL, or at least find some way to enjoy it again. Don't hold your breath.
