A Day in Paradise

So this weekend I indulged in a couple hours of my Second Life. As you may know parts of the podcasting community has become obsessed with SL. I am not sure what started it all, the first time I heard it mentioned was by Leo Leporte on TWiT, and since then it’s been a land rush with podcasters everywhere grabbing thier SL land.

I talked about my previous experiences meeting several Podcasting Celebrities. This week I decided to see where all the secret development was going on.

The Pickle island was annouced on the last Podcast Pickle show, the location is still undisclosed but by begging Pickle Radio, I got access. Pickle Island is still under heavy development, there are big peaceful grassy meadows which make great Drag strips. My poor VW Bug was totally outclassed by Pete’s awesome ride, so instead of racing we just drove around and chatted for a bit.

Pete, that was a lot of fun. After pete returned to his First Life I took the opportunity to wander around Pickle Radio’s new house. Great place, I showed Stella around as well, and we both enjoyed it.

The bathroom is nice as well, thankfully I found it just when I needed it. I hope you didn’t mind that used your facilities.

Unfortunatly, I didn’t notice until I was done that you hadn’t installed any toilet paper… Thankfully there was a bath ready, so I just hopped in and took care of that. I mention this because I couldn’t figure out how to flush the toilet, or let out the bath water once I was done, so you might want to do that before you move in.

Before leaving the Podcast Scene, I had to check out what was happening at the Podshow Palace and pay my respects to the Podfather himself.

We are not Worthy! We are not Worthy! We are not Worthy!
