Some of you probably know me already. I've been around in Second Life for a while now, in fact the contract to write for SLI appeared on the day I'd spent 2 years and 7 months inside Second Life.
For those of you that don't know me, I would describe myself in SL as primarily a scripter, and in RL primarily as a teacher. Of course that leads to scripting in RL and teaching in SL. I also sell stuff, run a couple of shops, rent some land to my friends.
I'm a moderately inveterate shopper, mainly for clothes: like many scripters I don't buy many people's gadgets, I write my own. I can (and indeed do) sell a few clothes too, but I'm a consumer in that market rather than anything else.
I plan to write a little summary of the economy inside and through Second Life every day to complement Tateru's daily census.
I'll also be reporting on educational issues in Second Life, which will spill into grid stability and features from time to time.
There will be a range of other issues I'll write about as the fancy takes me... in fact there's a new RPG within SL that I'll be checking out later on today to find out what that's all about, and writing about it soon.
Like a couple of other people here, I'm based in Europe, so my posts may appear at odd times. Things that affect us over here will also be mentioned no doubt!
1. **rubbing hands greedily** Yes... it's all falling into place... soon my army of bloggers will take over the Grid! All will bow, oh yes... ALL WILL BOW
