I’ve been talking about this back for several years now. Here’s your chance to give them a peek. (Oh, and it’s my first attempt as sending something to Google Video…)

Second Life
14
Apr 2006
I’ve gone and created myself a Second Life account. That’s me talking to a parrot. I tend not to play games as I end up playing them and getting nothing else done. However, I’m trying to look at this as a social experiment, not a game. I’m not sure how well that’ll work but it’ll take a while to find out. In any event, it doesn’t like my office notebook all that much as it slows to a crawl so I guess I’ll have to experiment more at home. If you’ve got an account send me a friend request. My Second Life name is “TravelinLibrarian Mandelbrot”.

Doctor Who: Series 2 Preview

Apr 2006
Broadcast on BBCi last night at 8pm local, this three minute preview of series two is now available via bittorrent. The quality isn’t great but it still gave me goosebumps. (The verbal oneupsmanship between Rose and Sarah Jane is priceless.)

Firefox 1.0.5.2

This just popped up on my screen. If you’re a Firefox user and haven’t seen it yet, I’m sure you will sometime over the next few days. Details about the update can be found on the Firefox Web site.
What I particularly liked about this is that I wasn’t asked, it just upgraded me. Then again, I trust the Mozilla foundation so I guess that’s why I’m o.k. with it. When it comes to Microsoft updates, I want full notification in advance of even downloading anything.
Update: I just checked and there’s a setting to have Firefox with automatically download & install or to notify you. I belive the automatic option is the default since I don’t recall ever changing it. You can find this setting under Tools|Options|Advanced|Update.
