== How to use streaming parcel media ==
== Archives ==
* Cover music + movies.
Torley started archiving to make this page more tidy. Also, while not everything in the archives has been resolved, archival does ''not'' mean that it'll ''never'' be done — it may still be ripe for doing. If that makes sense. :)
* Show examples of playing .MP3s and .MOVs.
* Video capture of web browser and URLs.
* Make the very strong point that Linden Lab does ''not'' store what's streamed, we merely pass it along from an external webserver.
 
== How to login with multiple accounts ==
* Explain command line parameters briefly.
* Show Second Life shortcut on desktop. (This will be Windows-specific, but in the text part of the blog post, there should be a link to Mac + Linux info.)
* Also show how to login automatically but if I do this, BE VERY SURE to explain security risks involved.
* Launch two viewers and show them both running momentarily.
 
== How to terraform ==
* Useful for landowners and showing the benefit to those interested in land.
* Explain the somewhat-confusing UI and show what each tool does on a blank patch.
* I reckon I'll wait for Gigs' {{jira|VWR-2331}} to be added first, it'd add a lot of nuances to the art.
 
== How to start your own wiki page ==
* This would primarily be web-based and showcase usefulness that most Resis don't know about. For example, [[User:Tid_Kidd]].
* Show simple wiki editing. (I should look for a richer, easier editor tho.)
* Emphasize that it acts as an extended profile and can be linked to from inworld.
* http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:User_page has good ideas.


== Explain how deeded land works ==
* '''[[User:Torley_Linden/Vidtut_ideas/2008-03-19|2008-03-19]]'''
* Explain how one deed's land
* Advantages and disadvantages of deeding land to a group
* What the "Owner Makes Contribution With Deed" button means checking vs unchecking when deeding.
* How to recover land from a group.
* Warnings on making multiple owners of group owned land


== Statistics Bar ==
=== Teen Grid ===  
* View > Statistics Bar (Ctrl-Shift-1)
* Gives info on the Teen Grid
* This could easily be a multi-part series
* Says some things that are only on the Teen Grid, and says some things that ARENT on the Teen Grid.
* Most important, Simulator tab, understand why your lagging
* What are all those pesky times (ms) ?
