- Calla is looking for employees! If you want to work in one of the most successful hair and skin shops in Second Life then be prepared to work blooming hard for your buck! Tigerlily Koi has a long list of expectations, including the ability to edit prim hair for customers (So don’t be under any illusions that merely standing in the shop and looking pretty will suffice!) However, the rewards are excellent. After a trial period ( payment in Calla hair vouchers) you could be earning L$200 per hour! I can’t remember where I saw the notecard on this one folks, I think it was in the Calla group notices ( forgive me if I’m wrong, but I’ve only just woken up) When I log in later I’ll verify the details and re-post. Just wanted to make you all aware!
- The ‘Poser’ group on Flickr is running a competition for best use of the couples ‘Intimata’ pose from Meya. L$500 plus SIX Meya poses for the winner….I’m defo up for that one!
- Changes are afoot on this site…I’m going to be revamping the ‘Kitty Essentials’ section over the next week or so. It was my plan that I’d be updating it on a weekly basis, but that’s not happened for a while owing to time constraints/RL committments. I’ll also be tidying up some of the blurb and imagery on the site:)
Google goes all ‘Lively’
So Google launched it’s MMO ‘thing’ a few days ago. It’s called ‘Lively‘, and enables you to create an avatar replete with your own room that you can embed on your web-site so your friends can drop by and enjoy..which is pretty cool if you ask me! But like Kaneva and There it seems to be aimed more towards the ‘tween’ market, and your design options are limited to the content provided by Google. With the success of vitual worlds like ‘Habbo Hotel’ I can see why Google have decided to dip their toes into the metaverse, but personally I think with all the competition from the previously mentioned, as well as the ever popular IMVU, I think they’ll have to rely on a lot of help from their already well-established brandname to attract the punters. If you want to take a peek at ‘Lively’ for yourself, click HERE What do you think? Put it this way, I don’t see it as a viable threat to SL ;P

Kitty thinks….
There can be nothing worse in Second Life than realising that you’ve hit your prim limit. I *hate* it when that happens- I’ve become adept at re-jigging items on my land to accommodate the inevitable, but it’s still a right pain in the ricker when it eventually occurs..I have so many pretties that I would love to have out on display, but I can’t because I just don’t have the prims and i don’t want to remove my fishtank/greenhouse/Tardis etc
Of course the solution to such a predicament is to have more land, therefore more prims, but that’s not economically viable for the majority of us. So what is the solution? Zero prim rezzers? I must confess that I have a few of these lurking in dusty corners of my inventory but I’ve never actually used the confounded things as they were a damn site more complicated than I had actually thought they were going to be. Plus, I’ve heard that they cause lag, and far be it for me to be accused of being a bad neighbour. So is there a solution? What about a system where you could rent extra prims for special events-eg parties/weddings etc?, or am I chasing rainbows again? ( Beats chasing pavements..when you catch them they hurt, especially after a few pints..)What are your thoughts?
