I've previously mentioned how depressed the economy is on the Teen Grid. They create content for essentially peanuts. Their lindens cost the same as ours, but they can purchase three times the amount of items. Some innovative teens are working to change that, though.Digital Refinery, the brainchild of Reallife Orca, is a teen-run content company with some of the finest content creators on the grid. They realized that Main Grid content companies had clients that weren't able to target their main market. Designers such as Ryan Dayton, Nikolai Althouse, and Brooke Barmy will be working with clients to show off their work.
Now that it's summer, concurrency will more than double, to a whopping 500 residents on at a time. Hopefully this will call attention to the Teen Grid and bring in more residents. If you are a Main Grid content company interested in putting your work on TG, please contact them. As long as none of them turn 18, I think Digital Refinery has a bright future!












1. I wonder whether some of the depression in teen grid economy is due to concerns that items may not be transferrable to the main grid when the teenager "graduates"? I know a young lady who is soon to turn 18, and she refuses to buy anything on the teen grid for that reason.
