Plywood to Disappear Again?


Okay, this is upsetting me. Go to the Plywood site, and you'll find the above image with the text below reading "Second Life just isn't funny anymore."

Plywood has had a turbulent history, but after its disappearance and subsequent reappearance, I was hoping it was going to be around for a while. Is this page an indication that it's going away forever? Moriash, please contact me and give me the scoop! Am I just being alarmist? Good lord ... WON'T SOMEONE THINK OF THE CHILDREN?

Plywood Webcomic set to return?

Plywood The Webcomic returns?

Plywood (The Webcomic) was a bona fide phenomenon. Created by Moriash Moreau and Chrestomanci Bard, it was long-running, carried the unique spirit of Second Life, and was genuinely funny. Ultimately, though, it wound down and stopped, and there was a fair bit of sadness about it.

However, for the first time since June 2006, a new strip graces the Plywood web-site. Moriash Moreau provides some explanation on his personal blog. So, Mori ... get to it! Don't make me stop the grid and come back there!

I'm sure every fan of the Plywood webcomic is waiting with fevered anticipation. But, hey, no pressure.

Camp Global Kids comic online now

Camp Global Kids is a summer camp that takes place in Teen Second Life. I have written about them before, but if you were wondering about the specific activities the camp undertook this year you could check out their new 12 page comic. The comic goes through all of the camp activities they undertook this year, from economic inequality games, to an educational maze developed by the campers.

I think this camp would have been really fun as a child. I was brought up in Florida and remember all of my everglades exploration camps, and exploring the wild life of my home state. But we now live in a time of global and virtual communities, so I can't imagine a better way to explore this new paradigm then a virtual summer camp.
