Nov. 6

Oh Second Life. You are so very bland to look at and so very boring to me yet so dearly loved by the academic community. I hope someday there will be virtual worlds with vibrant communities and custom content and teaching potential and all that crap that don't look like complete a gross boring pixelated polygonal mess. The only virtual world I can really buy into is one that is beautiful in some way and I can't find much beauty in Second Life. Plus I'm tired of hearing about it. Second Life is like the third year IASC buzzword. It is what the word "interactivity" was in all the first year curriculum.

On the other hand, that Gorean community is hilarious. I really want to read one of those books. I never thought I'd see such an amazing meeting of Fantasy lameness and BDSM wierdness. It's great, I love it.
