All-Time High

Wow I didn't even know that this was about to happen so imagine my surprise when I happened to look in the all time statistics. This blog had over 10.000 page views in January 2011.

Wooohooooo! Eddi Haskell, PetGirl Bergman and Apmel Goosson beware, I am catching on to you!

Big hugs and lots of thanks to my loyal readers, and all the newcomers also!

Real Life Hunk - Tom

My friend Eddi Haskell does a post about "a real life hunk" on his blog www.eddihaskell.com every week, I thought I would do one too - just this once.

This is Tom Ford.

 

"Thomas Carlyle "Tom" Ford (born August 27, 1961) is an American fashion designer and film director. He gained international fame for his turnaround of the Gucci fashion house and the creation of the Tom Ford label.

Tom Ford is openly gay, and he and his partner, journalist Richard Buckley, have been together since 1986. Buckley was the former Editor in Chief of Vogue Hommes International." (Wikipedia)

I can honestly say I haven´t seen many men that look as hot as Tom.

Happy Fourth Rezday, Eddi!

Today my friend Eddi Haskell, with the outstanding SecondLife-blog www.eddihaskell.com, celebrates his fourth rezday in SecondLife.

Happy Rezday, Eddi, and may you have many more!

My B-I-L Makes the Big Time

This is from my friend Eddi Haskell´s blog www.eddihaskell.com today, my darling B-I-L and his cute husband Andee prancing around in swim wear showing off their studly bodies.

...but now that Andrey has made it to the big blogs always remember you saw him here first, and in the buff too. Wooooooohoooo! Aren´t they a stunning couple?

Show Me Some Skin, Rodvik

Stolen from "Tinas universum"

Well as you all may know I finished a project on my blog with naked avatars from SecondLife (Nakna avatarer i SL) on Christmas Day.

Today I went out on the Internet in search of nudie pics of Rod Humble or Rodvik Linden, I was even going to be satisfied with semi-nude pictures.

Believe it or not but I couldn´t find a single picture of either of them without a shirt on and not a single one of them in bathing trunks or sexy white American boxers.

Rodvik, you better get your act together and send me a picture of you in bathing trunks or white underwear or - if you should happen to prefer it - just without a shirt!

This is an example of what I am looking for, stolen from www.eddihaskell.com

...or perhaps even something like these, if you dare, Rodvik! This is Ryce Skytower, one of Eddi Haskell´s beautiful creations.

Come to think of it, perhaps you even should let Eddi style your SecondLife avatar, Rodvik!

We really need a CEO-avatar that is way sexier than Philip Lindens was, before and after the remake!

The funniest picture I came across during my search was this one, and it doesn´t even show any part of you.

Send your pictures to lundamats@gmail.com.

And while you are at it you might as well answer my message to you on Facebook, dude. (Don´t even for a moment think I haven´t noticed the answers you have already sent to other bloggers!

The 2011 Bloggies

It's time for the Eleventh Annual Weblog Awards. Nominations have now opened and will close on January 16th, 2011.

The Bloggies began in 2001 to discover which blogs the Web considered the best, and have grown to be the longest-running and one of the largest awards for weblogs. Which lucky bloggers will earn a Bloggie this year?

I don´t expect to be nominated -  or even win. Well not this year...

But there are actually some categories that really fit this blog like a glove
a) European - well undeniably
b) LGBT - Hell yeah, I am here and I am queer
c) Religion - I have faith, not in God perhaps, but in mankind
d) Politics - Hell yeah again, what would life be without it?
e) Food - Yummy, I like good food and drink
f) Parenting - This may be unexpected, but I have seen "Supernanny"
g) Music - Let me just give you a hint - "Mauro"...
h) Gossip - Well, this is the category I call "news"
i) Fashion - Has anyone missed my Jesters Hat?
j) Topical - Any topic, I am game...
k) Group - Any group, I am game...
l) Humorous - Well I get 5 points for trying
m) Secret - Hell no one knows about this blog
n) New - Fresh and spruce
o) Lifetime - well I have been around for a rough year
p) Weblog of the Year - This would suit me best I guess.. dunno why, just feels like it´s all me...

There are a few more, but I got bored and tired.

Best wishes to "Tinas Universum", "Min avatar heter Apmel", "Joe.My.God" and "www.eddihaskell.com", I am keeping my fingers crossed for you all

Call for Recount of Votes

I just read this shocking news on www.eddihaskell.com, and I felt I had to share it with you, my dear readers.

Today there apparently was a drag party at my favorite gay club in SecondLife, The Erotes.

My friend Eddi Haskell decided to go to the party and wore his best lavender poodle frock, sweet pearl earrings and an amazing hairdo. He looked perfectly stunning if the pictures do him any justice. The fact that he added the "Vivienne Westwood-esque" touch of dirty chuckers should have bagged the victory!

But he was robed! Yes, yes I do willingly admit that Dex Moleno always looks awesome whatever outfit he is wearing, but surely nothing and no one could have won over Eddi today, perhaps not even I.

This is a scandal of immense proportions, I have encouraged Eddi, who I am sure is in tears due to this, to immediately sue the Erotes Club and ask for a recount of the votes! We will drag that hunky club owner Chade Daggers (yeah, he is also a dear friend of mine) sweet ass through the courts until he loses every stitch of cloth on his amazing body.

All we ask for is justice and that Eddi gets the honor of the win he so rightly deserves! (I am telling you, even the Gore v. Bush case fades in the light of this outrage.)

Rumours About Microsoft Continue

My friend Eddi Haskell reports on his blog www.eddihaskell.com  that the rumours concerning a Microsoft takeover of Linden Lab (the owners of SecondLife) still continue.

Imagine John, you would be 70 today!

John Winston Ono Lennon (9 October 1940 – 8 December 1980) was an English singer-songwriter who rose to worldwide fame as one of the founding members of The Beatles and, with Paul McCartney, formed one of the most successful songwriting partnerships of the 20th century.

Born and raised in Liverpool, Lennon became involved in the skiffle craze as a teenager, his first band, The Quarrymen, evolving into The Beatles in 1960. As the group began to undergo the disintegration that led to their break-up towards the end of that decade, Lennon launched a solo career that would span the next, punctuated by critically acclaimed albums, including John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band and Imagine, and iconic songs such as "Give Peace a Chance" and "Imagine".

Happy imagined 70th birthday, John!

On my friend Eddi´s blog I found this great tip;
"To celebrate his birthday, visit the Imagine Peace Tower, a virtualized version of the one that Yoko Ono constructed in Iceland last year. Light shows go off every 20 minutes."

Microsoft makes bid for SecondLife?

I almost fell of my chair when I read about this rumour on my friend Eddi Haskells blog Eddi Haskell´s Second life. I am not sure of how I really feel about it either but I thought you should know. (And "Tinas universum" has a post about the rumours too)

Rumours are that Microsoft has made more than one bid to buy SecondLife. The rumour still seems to be unsunstantiated and lacking confirmation, but lets just wait and see...

P.S: After thinking about this for five (5) minutes I think Microsoft should consider OutWorldz instead, some say it´s an exciting place although most of us would not agree!

Dear Bill Gates, it would be a better bargain if you bought "OutWorldz", its a much cheaper place...

Emeraldgate - update

Read all about it on "Eddi Haskell´s Second Life"

Eddi Haskell also gives us this piece of advice: "My strong advice to you is not violate TOS, which clearly states your account can be suspended if you are using Emerald or any other non-approved viewer. Linden Labs does not play games. And this is a very bad mess right now. (...) But there is another reason not to use Emerald right now, especially if you are concerned about privacy issues.

What some key managers at Emerald have done is simply outrageous. It may even be criminal."

I highly recommend you read the full post on Eddi´s blog and also this post by Douglas Green of "Harrisburg Second Life Examiner".

For me this is a question of trust. I don´t like the thought of my computer being used in someone else´s illegal activities. Neither am I comfortable with the thought that my privacy may have been breached.

The attempts to conceal the wrong-doings and the nonchalant way in dealing with it when it was revealed in spite of that, calling it "mistakes" and "shenanigans" and attempting to explain away and minimize what had in fact happened also upset me.

The Emerald viewer debacle

The Emerald viewer has been my favorite way to access Second Life for a long time.

After the recent criminal activities on that viewers developement team, which you can read about on other blogs,("Tinas universum" or "Eddi Haskell´s Second Life"), the viewer was taken off the Linden Labs "Third-Party Viewer Directory" yesterday.

This means it is now against the TOS to access Second Life with the Emerald viewer If you do that anyway you can get into some major problems with Linden Lab and your account can get suspended (see the link below about Eddi´s experiences).

Hopefully my friend Eddi Haskell is correct in his assessment that the Emerald viewer probably will be quicky reinstated, but the recent events have caused me to lose all trust in the people involved with that viewer.

I hate changing to a new viewer, does that mean I am getting old already? (I am so NOT allowing comments on that - at least not if you agree!) I already tried the official viewer and hated it...

If I do not answer you in SL you know the reason, I am only trying to learn how to control my new viewer. Aaaaaaaaarrrrgggghhhhhhhh...

Är Philip på väg tillbaks som VD för Linden Lab?

Jag läste precis ett intressant inlägg på "Eddi Haskell´s Second Life".

Ryktena har börjat florera att Philip Rosedale, inworld känd som Philip Linden eller "King Philip", kommer att återkomma till VD-posten för Linden Lab sedan han hoppade in som talare vid det pågående SL7B istället för den nuvarande VD:n Mark Kingdon, även känd inworld som "M Linden".

Det skulle vara en välkommen förändring anser jag! Vad vi behöver i Second Lifes nuvarande stadium är fortfarande visionärerna och drömmarna. Produktutvecklarna och förvaltarna får ge sig till tåls ännu ett tag!

Mer intressant i denna fråga finns att läsa på Wagner James Aus blogg "New World Notes"

P.S. ...och nu ser jag att PetGirl Bergman redan är ute med nyheten på sin blogg "Tinas Universum".

P.P.S. ...och PetGirl får kalla mig "gam" så ofta och så mycket hon vill, så det så...

Förändra din röst och låt som du vill i framtiden

Hos "Eddi Haskell´s Second Life" hittade jag detta intressanta inlägget. Enligt detta kommer man i framtiden kommer att kunna låta precis som man vill när man "voicar", som det kallas när man talar med varandra med rösten istället för att skriva.

Detta genom att ladda ner ett program hos LindenLabs och betala 750 L$ i månaden. Män kommer alltså att kunna låta som kvinnor, kvinnor som män, gamla som unga och unga som gamla .., och detta utan att besöka logopeden!!!

Skitkul, vissa har ju hittills haft "voice" mest som ett könstest eller ålderstest! Om någon har vägrat voica har anklagelser haglat om att den avataren egentligen tillhör fel kön eller fel ålder. Som om det inte ibland finns allehanda andra skäl att inte vilja voica med vissa människor.
