NoR Meeting

Many of us have played in NoR over the years. If you follow me you know the 9 regions that make up the NoR world shut down. We got a little bit of the story behind the shut down. But, if you have dealt with Linden Lab you something doesn’t sound right about the explanation given. Today we got the rest of the story.

Today at noon SL Time there was a meeting for Norians. I got there early and managed not to crash. So, I got a transcript of the meeting. Voice chat is not a part of NoR role play so it is expected that the meeting would be in chat.

SL being SL the main speaker couldn’t make it into SL.

RSS Feed Change

I am not up on what is happening here. But, Oz Linden said something about upgrading the Linden systems to RSS2, from the RSS1 they are running now. RSS is: Rich Site Summary. Which is a format for delivering regularly changing web content. Feedly reads the RSS feed from web sites to do its thing.

So, I expect this to be a change to the Linden web sites. Newer is better. Right?

SnapShot Panel Revisions
