The dynamics of the web

I had pretty much closed down this blog for several reasons. One was the computer crash. Another was that I pretty much had lost interest in SL so I didn’t have much to write about. Of course my readers lost interest in my blog because of no new material for weeks.

Then the other day, I stumbled up on something from the past that was SL related so I thought I would post that. In just a very short one I had the first comment on the post and the hits were starting to grow enormously. I wondered why that was. How could anyone know so fast? That I had written something again and what it was about.

I can see a few explanations. 1) A coincindence. Well that’s always a possibility, but on the other hand, that’s never happened before. Only the “spinders” find posts that fast. 2) The first one to find it was someone who had been watching my blog closely for months. It’s a flattering thought, but judging from my tracker info that wasn’t the case. 3) Trackback. I made a trackback back to motherFIC’s blog so, whoever is behind that blog knew I had posted my blog post. If that’s the explanation, then the owner of that blog either knows someone that’s part of SLU or he himself is a part of it.

Anyway, that’s not my problem and for others to worry about. What’s clear is that after that first person visiting, then the information of my “dangerous” blog post spread like a virus through plurk. Remind me not to sign up there btw;).

Finally…

… I can go back to SL. My computer crashed a while back and I wasn’t able to do anything really. I could access my email accounts but nothing more. It’s so frustrating when nothing works for you. But now I’m back and can go back to what I was doing before. Work with my store and hang out with my friens.

Closing a chapter…

I was really amazed over many that actually came to the rescue when I posted that last post. 160 hits in just a little while. Someone or someones must actually read my blog. Would have been nice with some feedback in the past. Well, I got more than I had ever hoped of getting in just one post.

Anyway, just to make things clear. I don’t know motherFIC and I don’t put any special credit to his article and I used to know Josh and Cris and I liked them. I reposted his article out of interest about a community I used to be part of. I would suggest anyone interested to know more about the background would read Surreals comments on my last post for more info.

If anyone wants to discuss this further with me, and with discuss I mean communicate, then I’ll be happy to. But to those who only want to showel dirt on me, then I won’t comment. I hope everything is clear now.

A long time ago I entered a competition at Koinup. I didn’t think much about it because there were so many really good entries. I didn’t think I stood a chance. I even missed going back to check what happened, but today I got a newsletter from them telling that the winners had been announced.

The New Realism and Pop Art winners picked by New World Notes Journalist Hamlet Au are:

A break

As my regular readers might have realized, I haven’t written anything for a long time. First the reason was that my RL was taking a lot of my time. I actually had things to do for a change. Now, when things have slowed down, it might take some time until I can write something. And it might take even longer before I can enjoy SL again. And quite some time longer before I can enjoy RL again. I’ll answer if someone contacts me, but I won’t be Lila for a while. If I could, I wouldn’t be my RL self either. Wish I could take a break from life for a while.

Never a boring moment….

I tried to log in to SL with an alt today only to find out that SL was at it’s usually weird mood. First I was moved to “a nearby region” when I was tp-ing home. Obvously a lot of other ppl had the same problem. The sim was crowded and everyone seemed to have wanted to tp home. I tried and tried and couldn’t get home and no one of the others could either. It seemed like I’ve lost my “home position”. I gave up and logged out to try to log into my “home”. It didn’t work. I got the “the system is logging you out” every time I tried.

I logged in with Lila noticed that my alt was still there. Lila got tpd to WA only to find this cute “art work” of grey avs:). I tried to tp to my alt, but “the region was full”. I looked at the map and got a printscreen. Never seen a region that full LOL:). In the end, things went back to normal, but I have the pics left:).
