Where Have You Been? The Bellisserian Bureau of Bureaucracy
In this episode of our bi-weekly (ie each episode runs for two weeks) series, “Where Have You Been?” — where we suggest places to go and things to do around the Second Life Grid — hosts Caledonia Skytower and Elrik Merlin discuss the intriguingly-named Bellisserian Bureau of Bureaucracy (BBB) which sets out to encourage travel and exploration across the grid, with a passport system promoting over 600 items — and they’ll find you a licence for almost anything! They run events and tours, produce a weekly online publication, and there are even Bellisserian embassies on seven continents.

Where Have You Been?: Two Sides of October
In the latest episode of our original series, “Where Have You Been?”, which suggests things to do and places to visit around the Second Life Grid, we approach the month of October in two different ways: The Briar Woods present a pleasant Autumnal scene, while the Ride of Doom lends a Hallowe’en-ish feeling to the proceedings. Both are well worth a visit!
We also suggest a couple of other venues that might be worth your perusal.
This show airs on October 25 and 28, plus Nov 1 and 4, at 12 noon and 4pm SLT/Pacific.

Where Have You Been?: Expedition Central
In the latest episode of our original series, “Where Have You Been?”, which suggests things to do and places to visit around the Second Life Grid, we discoverJosain Zsun’s Expedition Central, a long-lived and enjoyably old-school approach to presenting links to places of interest around and about in Second Life.

The latest episode of our original series, “Where Have You Been?” which suggests things to do and places to visit around the Second Life Grid, this time explores the Italianate village of Ciampi and its harbor, Porto Nuovo, which are spread across over half a dozen abutting mainland regions. They were envisioned and created by Viggen Petofi who began over six years ago with the parcels on Bhima and a few more, and has built it out as land became available and he could purchase it.

In addition, we discuss Draxtor Despres’s 47-minute machinima, “Made in SL: The Movie”, commissioned by Linden Lab for the 20th anniversary of the launch of Second Life. It’s well worth a watch — and it can be found on the Linden Lab YouTube Channel — or the link below. And we’ll tell you about the region of Omidyar where you can see the Second Life Logo Region for yourself. And take a deep breath and wander the heights and valleys of the Forest of Karuhvel to discover what’s there to be found by the brave and persistent.
