Silky Clio!

Hey Guys... don't have time to write a lot, just wanted to show you a picture of Clio in a SILK!


Yes lol


I got one of Candy's best silks, and here I am, wearing it:)

Then... MAYBE... I will try to make some very very silly hairdo... cause I am a hair maniac now lol

I have styles from ETD, Naughty, Calla... and even if yes, they're not too many (since I am actually a girl), but I feel like I have been spending a lot on hair!!!!

So I wanna start make my own, and don't worry, I'll keep you informed lol.

Going now!!! Byeee!

Hellooo!
Hahaha, I am kinda bored... here it' morning, and it's so hot one could not only cook an egg over the floor outside... I bet it would even work with a fat stuffed turkey!!! I am COOKED!
Oh my... well, last update hasn't brought voice to Second Life, wonder when the release for that will be.
Way awesome thing is that we now have SCULPTIES! I am so looking forward to start messing around with those things... And make stuff of all kinds. If I'll be able to work some program out good enough, I might even try to make shoes (haha, mind travels fast, doesn't it?).
But of course, until I manage to have some kind of 3d texturing program, then there's really nothing that could justify my enthusiasm lmao. (omg, the greek origin of the word enthusiasm was just coming back to my mind...).
Ok, I will post this, so short and so insignificant, and maybe log on to sl now... before the heat will melt me...
Bye!

2-nights date with old Pall:) (and some other things)



Hey everyone!


Guess what? It's been long since I last wrote something, as usual.


I even had to rebuild my computer some days ago... was a pain... way busy.


Anyways, I am back almost regular on SL now. And 3 days ago I was talkign to Pall in IMs while working (and noone there :( ). So after a long chat and after he'd said plenty of nice things (as he always does:)), he promised he'd take me out on a "date" the day after lol.


We scheduled everything, can you believe that? MEEEE, I got a DATE! lol... well, doesn't count, cause Pall is such a good friend and I like so much to make fun of him, that this date thing is not to be taken seriously lol. But it was very nice of him to take me out, so could relax a bit... we went to a very nice place. With dinner tables and tons of couple danceballs. (here's a snapshot lol).

But for how good as it was going, what could happen to me if not crash while we were still dancing?

My line went dooown!!!

And I never got it back!!! Poor Pall, he's been so patient lol. Most of my friends have been... I have disappeared at least once with everyone, I think... so bad of me!

And well... yesterday (the day after the tragic crash), I went dancing with Pall again, to finish and wrap up what we had abruptly interrupted. So we went to Phat, because they were having a contest for best in formal.

So of course Pall said: if you're going let me know, I'd be glad to dace with you (lol).

We went, and of course I wore one of my gowns ( the Sable Perpetua ). And at the end (omg, I was shocked) I even won the contest!!!

It was such an end to that interrupted date lol.

And awesome to have a REAL record that my gowns are some good lol (Key was like :see? I wish I had recorded those times when you said "I don't know if they are worth as much as I think" and things like that lol).

Of course it was a very nice surprise.

As it was the fact that renting a space at The Purple Moon was very very convenient for me lol.

Yes, I did start renting, here and there... more than one spot. Hope I can have one also in another couple of clubs (I already have them in mind, lol). But need to wait to see if I can get those spaces as well...


Then, very last thing: Of course I went back to the beta to talk to people, and I was very lucky cause I met the guy with the awesome, sexy, deep, goergeous voice!

Hehe, wanna see him? Here he is, in his Chinese outfit:).

The guy whose voice could make a woman melt (literally!!!!).

Well, enough stupid crap talk for today:)

TTY SOON, maybe... lol.

Philip Linden!!!

Hey GUYS!!!

You won't believe what I am about to say!!! I was on the beta grid again, today, with my usual "voice-chat friend" (lol... it's just too funny to chat with you!). We were just standing there at the welcome area, talking with some people as usual... with a little crowd that gathered around those of us speaking (and obviously some italians, as well...lol!).

Guess who came up and walked through us... PHILIP LINDEN!!!
YES! The starter!!! The creator of SL!
OMG! We were all so excited!
We kept him there for a while, asking him silly questions, and hearing from him some Second Life possible future features (sounds bad, doesn't it? lol).
It was sooo great!
And my friend and I were so excited that I didn't have the strength to hold myself from asking him "... well, Philip... since you are the starter... and you are here.... can we take a picture?"
LMAO!
He laughed too, so silly of me to ask.

But at the end, this is what came out of it:

It was so exciting lol.
We met the very first person who thought Second Life.
He asked us a few questions, too. And he told us he is amazed now, by the number of non-american people who are on SL.
OMG OMG OMG!
What a day... I also heard my friend's voice this morning... sooo NICE! Finally! (even if, please don't get offended lol, I don't totally agree with your wife... lol, still very nice voice though, I love it!).
Well, gotta go... should get some study done (lol... at 10 PM???).
Have a great day/night (whatever).

SL Voice! An amazing adventure!

Today Clio is stealing some time from her very busy RL to say something about SL voice.
To whoever doesn’t know it yet, from the next update, not only we will have sculpted prims and all their HUGE potential, but we’ll have the VOICE!
Yes! The SL voice feature (to chat using headphones instead of typing) is already available on the beta grid.
I didn’t even know! I logged in on the beta grid yesterday just to see the sculpties (which are absolutely gorgeous… can’t wait to learn how to make the textures to come up with any possible shape!!!) and I noticed the little voice control thingy at the bottom of the screen (like the music and video stream controls).
Well, after trying to make the first shape, I relogged in on the main grid, told some of my friends about sculpted prims, and asked one of them to download the beta grid, so that we could meet on it, and I could show her a bit of what sculpted prims are.
I showed her all the shapes that are available in the library, and then we noticed the voice option… but we couldn’t make it work!
And after 5 minutes, when we were actually about to say: “let’s log back on the main world… here we can’t even IM our online friends”, we heard a girl’s voice!!! YES! We heard her voice! And after a minute my friend was talking too, and we ended up talking all together (took me a LOT to figure out how to configure my headphones… of course lol).
OMG! I stayed on for almost the whole afternoon! Was crazy! I loved it! We met other and other and other people. All there chatting, laughing at people’s voices (or shivering at one of them’s… he’s got the deepest voice ever! Gorgeous but scary lol), trying to pick up accents.
It is a great experience!
It’s different from any other voice chat software. Because, again, it’s not a “chat”, it’s SL! It’s different… people LIVE it, they have their own second life and go around the world like that. So you actually walk around and hear people’s voices… isn’t it cool!?!
That’s how the little group gathered around us… first it was the 3 of us, then a fourth guy, and then from that another and another and another person… at the end we were so many… and the SIM got stuck, but we could still communicate by voice (which is totally cool: we could tell each other “I’m stuck! I can’t move”, instead of just being there, and not typing, not moving nor communicating).
Anyways… I will always remember those people I met yesterday, also because (it’s funny) by having that little chat with our actual voices, we got much closer than what it would have been if we had just typed stuff. Hearing a person’s voice does tell much more about that person than reading his/her messages. (AND some people’s voices are just fascinating lol! … or scary… the same… one of the best voices I’ve ever heard lol).

I cannot wait to talk to a couple of my friends, actually… some because I am too curious about their accent, one because I’ve been told how sexy his voice is, and now I wanna hear it lol (hahahahahahahahaha, soooo funny… your wife told me, so it must be true ;) ).
Hehe, well, anyone who reads this, do try the voice chat, it’s amazing, and way funny.
And if any of those I talked to that first time is reading this, please say Hi (in the comments…).
Byeee!

We're over 6 MILLIONS!

Wow! Did you people notice it?
SL residents got to over 6 millions... That's a HUGE number, isn't it?
I said to myself (some days ago...) "Wow, in a few months SL residents doubled!". And you know what? Now I can say that in 4 months 4 millions people joined SL.
That's such a fast growth.
Our (lol... like if it was partially mine, as well :)) virtual world is getting so big and so fast.
And along with its residents' number, the whole things will change. Maybe in the future the weather system will be all over SL, so we'll have to bring an umbrella in our purse all the time, just in case lol.

Today I met a very "old" resident, too lol. I've learned some things about SL in the past, and might be starting to see some little things I could put together for the SL History... lol... ok, will take SOOO much time.
Well, I am not at all inspired tonight, I'll see if I can write something more some other day... Besides, RL is supposed to be taking most of my time now, so...
Byez.
