Although media mostly focus on the adult part of Second Life more and more NGO’s settles in the virtual worlds. The Habitat for Wildlife is present on Hobbit Land - a place for everyone searching for a cosy home in beautiful and close-to-nature area.
It’s been a while since Ley visited the 2ndblog. But now he’s back and paid both homage and respect to our ancient relatives in oooold Egypt. A beautifully made sim called ‘Upper Kingdoms’ offers several good spots for shooting photos.
Up until now I had friends in Real Life and friends in Second Life separated. When the UK-band Duran Duran played in Copenhagen on the 22nd of June 2008 my two worlds melted together. Along with the SL Club Interference owner Chrissy Welinder I joined a crowd of dedicated duranies when both they and the band visited Denmark.
Today the 2ndblog editor came back to SL after one month in mental exile in RL. And eventhough SL often seems like alot of appearance only, he was stunned by all the IM’s he received just seconds after his login. Friends are everywhere - and to them I seem to be more than just appearance… Thanks alot guys 
There still is a pulse, so he really is still alive. The blog has been awfully quiet for the entire last month of 2007 - however it appears to be very well written. The blog’s reading level is rated ‘Genius’.. Geez, I hope I didn’t leave some readers out in the dark.
For what it’s worth I am sorry for letting the readers of the 2ndblog down. I haven’t written anything in three weeks due to private affairs. I hope everybody will accept and many will even understand.
It’s not a retreat from the virtual world - on the contrary. The Association for International Cancer Research (AICR) has launched an “old fashioned” website to support the organization’s growing activity in Second Life. In fact the website seems to explain the reason for the virtual activities to the not yet so virtual AICR-supporters.
The already prosponed guided tour/seminar through SL for the class of students at the danish IT-University ended in a disappointing crash. The University internal connections and server were not scaled to have an entire class of stundents roam around SL at once. So after just two stops on the tour, it was cancelled and abandoned leaving me alone to explain the probs to the AICR-creator Kristopher Tenk and the AvaStar chief editor Regis Braathens .. Rats 
Dedicated Duranies from around the globe met at the Club Interference once more on saturday - this time to celebrate the Duran Duran leadsinger Simon Le Bon who turned 49 on the same day. There were no sign of Simon or any other of the band members. But two dusin of dedicated fans and groupies enjoyed a great evening with the club owner Chrissy Welinder.

At the Club Interference owner Chrissy Welinder once again throws a huge party to celebrate her heroes, while we wait for the new DD-album to arrive on the 13th of November.
