SL22B Starts Today

 

 After weeks of preparation, the Second Life Birthday celebrations finally start today. The builds are finished (baring a few last minute minor tweaks), and ready for the public to see them. 

 

The area for the celebration makes up 52 sims, including eight for adult-rated exhibits not shown on this map, being some distance to the east.

 

This includes the SL Newser's exhibit, at southeast SLB Enchant. Built by the talented Silvia Ametza and her team, it shows how time has altered the Pyramids of Giza.

The event begins at 11AM SL time when the sims all open. At 12 Noon today is the Opening Ceremony by Patch Linden at the Royal Keep at SLB Mesmerize (245/10/76), followed by numerous music events at the stages, with the resident-built exhibits available at any time from start to finish.

Cartoon of the Day: On Top of The Newser Exhibit

 

Taken at the top of Silvia Ametza's SL18B Newser exhibit. While going about the SLB grounds, Mia Wallace decided to climb it, then I followed, then Zoren Manray. While this wasn't quite the conversation that followed, we had some fun times.

Three More SL17B Exhibits

The events of the Second Life Seventeenth Birthday may be over. But the exhibits are still up and will remain so for a few more days. And with most of the people gone, there's noticeably less lag. While there's not enough time to write about them all, we can put a spotlight on a few in three different SL17B sims to give examples on what's here.
