[13:08] | Benji | Nods |
[13:08] | Marianne McCann | Hey Eddi |
[13:09] | Peewee Musytari | the no reply buttons, the fact that people have found a way to still post comments and we can`t see them, the order of posts in the threads |
[13:09] | Peewee Musytari | and specially no reply button for OP |
[13:09] | Raymond Linden | I am hoping to get some feedback from Lithium on the Reply functionality in Answers hopefully this week or early next |
[13:09] | Peewee Musytari | hardly any answer us now |
[13:09] | Lexie | ok |
[13:09] | Raymond Linden | We'll keep you posted! |
[13:10] | Lexie | Yeah those are issues we know about and its frustrating. We appreciate you working with the system |

[13:21] | Amanda Linden | i picked up 4 pages of notes re: best practices of how other co's are using lithium. |
[13:22] | Amanda Linden | in particular, home depot and sephora are adoing some very interesting things. |
[13:22] | Amanda Linden | also had time to sit down/have a drink with lyle fong, the ceo. |
[13:22] | Amanda Linden | and a lot of their exec team. |
[13:22] | Amanda Linden | turns out, they point other customers to our platform to demonstrate a series of best practices...turns out we're donig pretty well so far--and that includes all of you guys. |
[13:23] | DogWomble Dollinger | :D |
[13:23] | Peewee Musytari | yay |
[13:23] | Lexie | Yay!! |
[13:23] | Lexie | SL community is awesome |
[13:23] | Amanda Linden | and, maybe in the future, a few of their folks want to come in and attend these meetings. after all, it's your suggestions that get raised to them re: enahncements, etc. |
[13:23] | Marianne McCann | /me digs up an NCI landmark |
[13:23] | Daniel Voyager | wooot |
[13:23] | Raymond Linden | Yes - your feedback has been fantastic |
[13:23] | Amanda Linden | yeah, super exciting. |
[13:23] | Lisa Fossett | You have robust users who care about the platform |
[13:23] | Lexie | so true Lisa |
[13:23] | Adamburp Adamczyk | yes |
[13:23] | Amanda Linden | and, the closer we are to them re: partnership, the faster they will work on our changes/updates. :) |
[13:23] | Amanda Linden | sneaky, huh? |
[13:23] | Raymond Linden | haha |
[13:24] | Lexie | niiice |
[13:24] | Lexie | ㋡ |

[13:24] | Peewee Musytari | yus...they will make fixing answers easy...woots!! |
[13:24] | Peewee Musytari | and bumping threads |
[13:24] | Amanda Linden | raymond, lexie, and i are working up a nice list of improvements to the platform. |
[13:24] | Amanda Linden | we want to grow the usage and make it more compelling visually and integrate some of the best practices. |
[13:24] | Raymond Linden | Peewee - I did meet the VP of product and specifically talked to him about the Reply functionality in Answers! So, hopefully, we can figure something out! |
[13:25] | Amanda Linden | lha, i met several of their vp's |
[13:25] | Peewee Musytari | cool ty raymond :) |
[13:25] | Amanda Linden | oh, sorry raymond. |
[13:25] | Amanda Linden | :) |
[13:25] | Amanda Linden | keep going, i'll stop. |
[13:25] | Amanda Linden | /me sips coffee |
[13:25] | Raymond Linden | oh - please go ahead. |
[13:25] | Amanda Linden | well that's the big stuff, what about you? |
[13:26] | Peewee Musytari | I added an item to the agenda sort of on this topic....about the smileys |
[13:26] | Raymond Linden | Well, they have some pretty interesting Facebook integration modules coming up. |
[13:26] | Adamburp Adamczyk | /me wonders when amanda'll pop in for coffee'n'donuts |
[13:26] | Lexie | That could be interesting |
[13:26] | Marianne McCann | Oh, I bet thse will be... uh... wildly... er... popuar |
[13:26] | Amanda Linden | really cool and twitter too. |
[13:27] | Raymond Linden | And it was cool meeting the different companies using the product |
[13:27] | Dresden Ceriano | blech... what about twitter? |
[13:27] | Lexie | hehe Marianne..you never know! |
[13:27] | Dresden Ceriano | lol |
[13:27] | Amanda Linden | raymond, tell them about the cool twitter thing we're looking at |
[13:27] | Marianne McCann | True, Lexie |
[13:27] | Eddi | aw .. about fb i,m little " :/ " it have some lag, and i hate, i hope its not a flash module.. :p |
[13:27] | Peewee Musytari | cool and twitter in same sentence... /me is impressed |
[13:27] | Peewee Musytari | hehe |
[13:27] | Adamburp Adamczyk | /me is not |
[13:27] | Raymond Linden | Lithium does have some interesting Twitter integration that we are looking into |
[13:28] | Amanda Linden | yeah, like this is cool... |
[13:28] | Dresden Ceriano | cool |
[13:28] | Amanda Linden | the ability for us to take a twitter comment and then move it over to lithium as a forum thread. |
[13:28] | Amanda Linden | so that you can have indepth discussions on twitter topics. |
[13:28] | Amanda Linden | and then twitter out that the discussion is happening on the forum (at a specific place) |
[13:28] | Amanda Linden | i hearted that one. |
[13:29] | Arawn Graalrd | Was it Lichtenstein, who did the cartoons? |
[13:29] | Eddi | Raymon cause, if i use firefox, flash_player and second life in same time , hmm its very lagy .. :/ and firefox freez some time .. |
[13:29] | nitro2424 | kk still cant find a job do u guys know where any clubs that r hiring r |
[13:29] | Raymond Linden | They are also really focusing on opening up their platform to have developers outside of Lithium to help build improvements |
[13:29] | Raymond Linden | They are calling it Developer Nation I think |
[13:29] | Lexie | I really like that |
[13:29] | Peewee Musytari | nitro go there |
[13:30] | Dresden Ceriano | can you set up a twitter account that will tweet new topics as they're posted? that would be cool |
[13:30] | Lisa Fossett | Nitro, look to the bottom right of your viewer for something that looks like a comic chat bubble. Click on that and find my IM |
[13:30] | Amanda Linden | ty lisa |
[13:30] | Peewee Musytari | click teleport on that lm |
[13:30] | Raymond Linden | So, all in all they are really tapped into the tech community which is cool |
[13:30] | Lisa Fossett | He's in basic, I'm sure |
[13:31] | Lisa Fossett | I'm trying.... |
[13:31] | Peewee Musytari | he said he has an inventory earlier |
[13:31] | Amanda Linden | ah |
[13:31] | Amanda Linden | so, all in all it was a great conf. |
[13:31] | Lisa Fossett | YAY |
[13:31] | Amanda Linden | we'll come back to you with updates re: some of the improvements on our roadmap and get your feedback/thoughts. |
[13:31] | Amanda Linden | oh, and 30 second commercial break. |
[13:32] | Amanda Linden | did you guys see tha twe launched the new search project viewer? |
[13:32] | Marianne McCann | /me did |
[13:32] | Amanda Linden | def check it out. the buzz is good! |
[13:32] | Dresden Ceriano | /me goes for a cigarette |
[13:32] | Dresden Ceriano | lol |
[13:32] | Amanda Linden | ha |
[13:32] | Peewee Musytari | yeah I looked in there today |
[13:32] | Daniel Voyager | yay |
[13:32] | Marianne McCann | The new search is fab. Granted, not too hard to beat what was there... |
[13:32] | Olivia (prncss435436) | i met that day |
[13:32] | Amanda Linden | yeah, sent you guys a group notice because figured you would be interested. |
[13:32] | Eddi | bring me an coffee pls :p |
[13:32] | Olivia (prncss435436) | that was you |
[13:32] | Olivia (prncss435436) | lol |
[13:32] | Peewee Musytari | it dropped my biznez way down the list |
[13:32] | Olivia (prncss435436) | sorry |
[13:32] | Olivia (prncss435436) | wrong window lol |
[13:32] | Peewee Musytari | so I made some changes to see if its better tomorrow |
[13:32] | Daniel Voyager | New search is great! |
[13:33] | Dresden Ceriano | i only tried it on the web, but it seems much better |
[13:33] | Lexie | Also, I know some of you are cringing at the words FB etc but remember how SL evolved. You all tried new things and made stuff happen. We need to keep exploring right? Thats what we do right? Search viewer is a good example of evolving. |
[13:33] | Olivia (prncss435436) | shit im still dancing |
[13:33] | Amanda Linden | thanks daniel--saw your tweet. made my day |
[13:33] | Marianne McCann | And I have to agree with some on Twitter - the events "Happening Now" would be a great tie-in to VWR-17022 |
[13:33] | Adamburp Adamczyk | lexzie, some poeple would argue that sl has de-volved |
[13:33] | Adamburp Adamczyk | in terms of usability |
[13:33] | Eddi | prn, go in world and click stop to animating my avatar :) |
[13:33] | DogWomble Dollinger | try that olivia |
[13:34] | Lexie | There will always be a variety of opinions. Thats what makes SL grow. |
[13:34] | Lexie | ㋡ IMO |
[13:34] | Adamburp Adamczyk | true |
[13:34] | Marianne McCann | But it's much more usuable, givig me better results, and I rather like some of the category imrpovements to the search |
[13:34] | Amanda Linden | yep. |
[13:34] | draconis.neurocam | the whole point of secondlife was for it to be its own thing, i find it disconcerting to think lots of companies are treating it as a new internet scenario |
[13:34] | draconis.neurocam | facebook that is |
[13:34] | Amanda Linden | and, whatever we can do to make the user interface easier, the more we can grow the world--good for everyone. |
[13:34] | Peewee Musytari | mostly people don`t understand the pushing of FB from what i`ve seen...its not compatible with fantasy personas and they are deleting them |
[13:34] | Marianne McCann | (Now to see the social aspects: groups, friends, etc. evolve) |
[13:34] | Amanda Linden | we are aware of the fb thing. |
[13:34] | Adamburp Adamczyk | well i personally decicded to join the "express your oopinions with your smackers" campaign |
[13:34] | Amanda Linden | did you see the notice re:encouraging folks to put up pages vs. profiles. |
[13:35] | Amanda Linden | on fb |
[13:35] | Marianne McCann | I've found the FB thing to be incredibly easy to manage. My avvie doesn't spend any time there. Problem solved. |
[13:35] | Marianne McCann | /me winks |
[13:35] | Daniel Voyager | Loves the new "scrollable" in Search. :) |
[13:35] | Lisa Fossett | In addition, FB is cracking down lately on SL accounts on FB (non-RL accounts). It's against FB TOS |
[13:35] | Dresden Ceriano | yes... i actually went and made one to see what that was about |
[13:35] | Amanda Linden | nice. |
[13:35] | Peewee Musytari | I don`t use it personally, just saw that recent thread where they deleted a lot more last week...did they change their minds? |
[13:35] | Amanda Linden | well, use the feedback button or go to the forum section on search....the thread. |
[13:36] | Amanda Linden | re; search |
[13:36] | Marianne McCann | If folks want to use FB, great. It's another option for them. If they don't, easy enough for nme to not click a "like" button. |
[13:36] | Marianne McCann | BlooMoo Money |
[13:36] | Dresden Ceriano | right marianne |
[13:36] | moo Money | /me waves |
[13:36] | Adamburp Adamczyk | /me is 100% anti-"social networking" |
[13:36] | Ann Otoole | fb knows who hangs out on SL websites that have fb like buttons. fb tracks your movements that way. if you don't want to be tracked then learnn how to filter fb out in your hosts file. |
[13:36] | Amanda Linden | yep-all about options. |
[13:37] | Peewee Musytari | agree marianne...sl is escape from reality...fb is full on reality lol |
[13:37] | Dresden Ceriano | right |
[13:37] | Lexie | I do like options |
[13:37] | Amanda Linden | interesting... we've done surveys and 50% of our resi's are all about escaping reality and 50% want to connect to RL identity. |
[13:37] | Amanda Linden | but, that's the beauty--you can do either. |
[13:37] | Marianne McCann | I think the issue is that the argument has long been "Facebook versus SL" or even "Facebook becoming SL" that it is hard for people to consider it as an option for those who want that element. |
[13:37] | Amanda Linden | up to you |
[13:37] | Daniel Voyager | SL FB now has 145,262 likes http://www.facebook.com/secondlife :D |
[13:38] | Lexie | oh ty for the number Daniel |
[13:38] | Peewee Musytari | do u think it has made more under 18s join SL and lie about their age? |
[13:38] | Marianne McCann | /me is happy to not bring the baggage of my first life into my second, and not take the baggage of my second life into my first |
[13:38] | Daniel Voyager | np |
[13:38] | Ann Otoole | if you want the marketing advantages of FB then out yourself and go for it lol. |
[13:38] | Arawn Graalrd | Facebook won't let me use a professional name? |
[13:38] | Dresden Ceriano | people get scared the facebook type reality will become expected and in some cases demanded |
[13:38] | Amanda Linden | 16+ can join SL now... |
[13:38] | Peewee Musytari | cos so many now seem to talk like kids and are registered as adults |
[13:38] | Dresden Ceriano | in SL i mean |
[13:39] | Kraptacular Kat | marianne you cant export your baggage |
[13:39] | Adamburp Adamczyk | i agree peewee - that';s why i locked down my 1/4 mainland sim |
[13:39] | moo Money | I don't like it when unfamiliar clearly avatar SL accounts attempt to friend me on FB |
[13:39] | Peewee Musytari | they use text speak on forums |
[13:39] | Peewee Musytari | yuk |
[13:39] | Marianne McCann | I rather wish, though, that there was an SL specifci option for a "feed/wall" that did not require me to leave the SL UI for a third-party website |
[13:39] | moo Money | it's my RL (and only) account and I only approve people I've met IRL or have known for a while |
[13:39] | Lexie | Interesting Marianne! |
[13:40] | Eddi | Marianne, yeap interesting lol |
[13:40] | Marianne McCann | Lexie - https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-20663 is one example of that notion. I also wrote about another option in my blog. /me winks |
[13:40] | Dresden Ceriano | i had thought about something like thqat too marianne |
[13:40] | Lexie | I will take a look ㋡ |
[13:40] | Eddi | back in few, sorry* |
[13:40] | Dresden Ceriano | for twitter though |
[13:40] | Marianne McCann | I would LOVE a feed where I could provide asynchronus information to my friends and associates, without having to rely on a unreliable 9and sometimes bothersome) group chat |
[13:41] | Dresden Ceriano | i mean like twitter |
[13:41] | Dresden Ceriano | lol |
[13:41] | Marianne McCann | Meanwhile also allowing me to go "what are my friends up to?" |
[13:41] | Lexie | I like that |
[13:41] | Peewee Musytari | a diff way to have conference chats would be kewl |
[13:42] | Peewee Musytari | the current ones are worse than group chats for lag |
[13:42] | Dresden Ceriano | we have to do something to make networking better in SL... things have changed |
[13:42] | Marianne McCann | If I could log in, pull up a feed, and see "Oh hey, GrouchoMarx Resident is at a cool show right now" and join them, I'd be all in for that |
[13:42] | Amanda Linden | :) good idea marianne. |
[13:42] | Amanda Linden | i have a meeting at 4pm today with the profile guy (the guy who rules the profiles world) |
[13:42] | Amanda Linden | and i'll find out what he's up to... |
[13:42] | Amanda Linden | but, super good idea. |
[13:42] | Marianne McCann | And that way, ol Groucho doesn't ave to conference chat me and spam with "Come to my show" or whatever |
[13:42] | Dresden Ceriano | the profile king? |
[13:42] | Arawn Graalrd | /me normally makes his location visible to friends, but few friends follow suit |
[13:43] | moo Money | I wouldn't mind a tab in viewer 2.0 that lets me see a feed of published friend activity |
[13:43] | Amanda Linden | :) |
[13:43] | Marianne McCann | Ya, Moo |
[13:43] | Amanda Linden | ok, i want to make sure weh ahve time for resi questions on the agenda... |
[13:43] | Lisa Fossett | /me thinks there went a perfect example registration name fatigue |
[13:44] | Amanda Linden | products forum question... |
[13:44] | Arawn Graalrd | 2/14 friends show up on map |
[13:44] | Amanda Linden | lexie? wanna take that one. |
[13:44] | Lexie | Sure |
[13:44] | Peewee Musytari | ooh yes please |
[13:44] | Marianne McCann | ( http://marianne.secondlifekid.com/2011/01/06/a-second-life-heresy/ was my blog entry, FWIW) |
[13:44] | Lexie | Peewee, I think we will need to talk about it with the team. We have a LOT of sub forums right now. We need to slim down a bit |
[13:45] | Lexie | So.. I think once we do a bit of that, we may be able to see how something like that could fit in |
[13:45] | Peewee Musytari | its not a chat one...on the old one people posted but you couldn`t reply |
[13:45] | Lexie | hmmm |
[13:45] | Peewee Musytari | is more of an info a interesting read one |
[13:46] | Raymond Linden | Yeah, we are working on trying to slim down the forums - if you have ideas . . .there is a thread started . . .let me try to find it |
[13:46] | Lexie | Could something like that be a feed? |
[13:46] | Lexie | Or do you mean strictly a forum board Peewee |
[13:46] | Nathan Adored | /me wonders what all he missed. |
[13:47] | Raymond Linden | Forum consolidation thread: http://community.secondlife.com/t5/Forums-Blogs-Answers-and/Forum-Consolidation/td-p/876807 |
