'''Snowglobe''' is the name of a new viewer (in development) for Second LifeOlder documentation will refer to it as the "SLDev Viewer" (and some will refer to "HTTP Texture", the first project we're working on).
{{Obsolete|This page is here only for historical purposes; Snowglobe is no longer being developedSee [[Project Snowstorm]]}}


For more info about the Snowglobe viewer, see [https://blogs.secondlife.com/community/technology/blog/2009/03/30/intensifying-open-source-efforts Philip's blog post: "Intensifying Open Source Effort"] which describes our new approach to open source.  See [https://lists.secondlife.com/pipermail/sldev/2009-May/013879.html Philip's mail to sldev] for a little bit more about the name. 
Snowglobe was the previous Second Life open source viewer project (before [[Project Snowstorm]]). It created the viewer of the same name, which added many new features on top of those supported by Linden Lab's official Second Life Viewer.
