Virtual World Best Practices in Education 2025 Conference

 

Tomorrow at 8:30 AM is the start of one of the more educational yearly events in Second Life, the Virtual Worlds Best Practices in Education conference, or VWBPE.  It is "a global grassroots community event, which focuses on education in immersive virtual environments." This year's theme is Transitions. Dancerina Starlight wrote about the event for the Newser.

Some April Fools Pranks In Second Life, and Elsewhere

 

Yesterday was one of the Newser's traditions, the April Fools joke story. Sometimes it's poking fun at something done by the Lindens, and sometimes it's poking fun at real-life news. This year, it was the later, poking fun at a certain President's insistence that America "most have" a certain island. A couple readers didn't like it. Others thought it was hilarious, "Good thing I wasn't drinking my tea when I read this. Thanks for the scoop Bixyl, and maaaybeee check your calendar after reading this, folks."

But this wasn't the only April Foolery. Far from it.

 

 Those using Firestorm yesterday probably noticed things weren't quite right. Once, the viewer seemed slanted. Other times, there was a face poking up in the corner "I heard a mouse click.:And the bird had googly eyes. But there were also various messages in the popup window in the center.

Attention residents: An epidemic of uncontrollable laughter has broken out in Second Life! Proceed with caution, as spontaneous giggles may occur at any moment.

 

Fashion emergency: All virtual clothing has been replaced with banana peels and coconut shells. Embrace the tropical chic look!

 

Beware of rogue teleportation portals appearing randomly across Second Life. You never know where you might end up!

Due to a coding hiccup, all avatar voices have been replaced with chipmunk squeaks. Happy chatting!

 

And Linden Labs got into the act as well. Patch Linden would announce on the forums a new Linden Home theme.  

We are excited to introduce the latest addition to the Linden Homes family, now available for preview in the Welcome Hub Linden Homes Demo region. Residents have long awaited something fresh, and today we are unveiling a surprising new direction with the gravity-defying Topsy-Turvy Homes. Every detail of these homes has been carefully crafted to provide a completely inverted living experience. Gardens sprout beneath floorboards, welcome mats hang proudly from the ceiling, and chimneys point straight to the ground. These homes offer a whimsical and truly one-of-a-kind perspective of Bellisseria, inviting you to see the world from a whole new angle. Staying true to our finest traditions, the Topsy-Turvy Homes arrive as part of a broader effort to create more dynamic and evolving environments.

 

But this wasn't all.  "Along the coastlines, residents may notice the arrival of Offshore Oil Rigs. These towering structures have quickly become part of the seascape, giving a more industrial touch to the otherwise serene Bellisserian waters." 

 

Thankfully there were no reports of oil soaked birds. 

 

There were also reports of volcanoes, "In the Thousand Islands regions, volcanic activity has stirred, adding glowing rivers of lava and drifting ash to the air. Some believe it to be a sign of seasonal shifts within the grid itself."

 

The response so far to the Lindens' April foolery has been mostly positive, "Love the new houses, so much more interesting than the old ones/" "I want one of those homes!" "Just needs a little early 80's Lionel Richie music, and we'd be right at home!" A couple people didn't think much of the oil rigs, but the volcanoes seemed popular, "LOL - it's regurgitating cows!" "I'm a bit disappointed that I can't catch the volcano cows for my Ranch." "I'm a bit disappointed that I can't catch the volcano cows for my Ranch." "Great April Fool "

 

More later on April Fools in gaming.

Breaking News: Linden Lab To Make Mainland Continent Satori Part of Bellisseria

 

 

Longtime residents will probably recognize the roughly triangular mainland continent of Satori, even if they forget it's name. Made up of plains, mountains, and shoreline, a number of residents have made it their home. But there's still plenty of abandoned land.

 

But late yesterday, Linden Lab announced Bellisseria would be annexing the land and making it into Linden Home space.

 

Due to the demand of Linden Homes, the limited paths of expansion by sea, and the amount of unclaimed mainland, the landmass known as Satori will be incorporated into Bellisseria. This means that those living there will need to sign up for Premium accounts and eventually get notices to take down their builds in order to receive their Linden Homes. 

The forums were soon filling up with responses from people with homes there not happy with the idea of being annexed. A Joe Greenland wrote, "This is our home, and we like things as they are." Jane Dane, a former tenant of renters on Satori, wrote, "It's not the neatest place in the world, but it has charm, and it would be a shame if it were to simply become just another part of the Linden Home continent. Besides, they'd have to move if they couldn't pay. Was that ever taken into consideration?"

 

But Don Linden would write, "We're so sure the people of Satori want to become Bellissarians, we're going ahead with the annexation." He insisted, "Bellessaria needs Satori, and Satori needs to be part of Bellisseria. We're going to make Second Life great again."
