Dress For Success

Syndra's Fashion story today is a little different than most. This time she offers advice about how to dress when looking for a job, or rather, how to look when applying for a job. Besides clothing, you also have to think about your hair, and with the development of mesh, things like one's hands are now details. These things can be even more important in adult entertainment where clothing isn't always involved.

Fabulous Flags

Syndra has been getting ready for the Fourth of July a little early. Or rather, scouting around for those who want to be prepared. She's found a few examples of red white and blue women's swimwear, and most people would agree, with all the politicians wrapping themselves in the flag these days, it looks a lot more appealing when on a cute girl.

New Reporters, New Sponsorship Level

It's been a lot of fun celebrating the Newser Anniversary, but that's not all we have to crow about.

In the past couple weeks, we've had three new reporters join our ranks, Leona Kitty, Syndra (Katakanna), and Ozymandius (0zymandi). They've already sent in some articles. Ozymandius did a great review of the Insilico roleplay area. Syndra brought our Fashion section out from inactivity. And Leona has gotten the attention of people wanting to advertise here. We're looking forward to more of their articles.

Also, we've had requests for a smaller level of sponsorship from people who are looking to do so long term, but have doubts about doing so at the level our normal sponsorships require. So we're introducing our Secondary Sponsorships. These are much like Primary Sponsorships, but are on other sections other than the main one (People, Places, Events, etc.). These are currently 5,000 Linden dollars for a three month period, extendable by purchasing more time.

Commentary: "Get a Job"

Some people in Second Life don't make much money in real life, or otherwise can't or won't buy Linden dollars. If you're one of these people, how can you afford that nice dress or that quality avatar, or that nice little home for rent? For Syndra (katakanna), the answer is obvious: get a job in Second Life. So what jobs are available? Plenty.
