Eye on the Blog: "The 'What Second Life Means to Me' Video Share Project"

Following Linden Lab's announcement that they are ordering third-party Linden exchangers to close by August, Xiola Linden posted on the Linden blog about a "video share project," inviting the residents to take part in a promotion of Second Life for it's anniversary.

We’ve been having a lot of fun with no end in sight to the good times - but you can’t turn 12 without a little pride and reflection. Second Life has been going strong for a dozen wonderful years and there’s a ton of things happening to celebrate. You’ll see more to come here in the Featured News Blog - but we wanted to stop and ask - “What is the meaning of Second Life?” To you - that is! This question may sound daunting - but the truth is, tapping into what makes “SL” so special to us as individuals and communities is a really amazing exercise in retrospection and self-discovery. This is your world - so what does it mean to you? Whether you just got started, have been onboard for the full dozen years, or fall somewhere in between - we’d love to see a glimpse of your story in the “What Second Life Means to Me” video project.

For those without a video program, Xiola suggested Fraps, which has a free version, and Camtastia, which has a trial version, She also stated the videos don't have to be strictly inworld, " because we understand that Second Life impacts our offline lives as well."

Xiola started things off with her own video:
