In case you didn’t know you can now get Second Life grid status reports in a variety of ways. My favorite has to be the Twitter SL Grid Status Report but there is also a web site, and the ability to get RSS updates. In other news Second Life will soon be providing another Showcase with quality places and events to visit in Second Life. An emphasis will focus on Arts and Culture, Hot Spots in the virtual world, Music events, Fashion events, and more. This will be incorporated into the Second Life search and replace the Popular Places tab.
