Those who fail to backup their digital lives are doomed to repeat the same experiences over and over and over.<br /><br />Please forward your brochure to me and contact me for a sales consultation.

I would hope so, if you're to be profitable. Charge dollars, pay in Lindens. Market has collapsed? Oh, well!<br /><br />We've had accidental death and disability insurance on our Whimsy sim for more than two years now. We call it Whimsurance. Take a look at our policy and riders at:<br /><br />http://cheyennepal.blogspot.com/2008/07/whimsurance.html<br /><br />and<br /><br />http://cheyennepal.blogspot.com/2008/07/whimsurance-rider.html<br /><br />Our policy (which never pays) is available for $10L on Whimsy, which is known for dropping red hot smoking lava boulders on our visitors.<br /><br />My partner will be contacting you to see if we can enter into a mutually beneficial business arrangement to rip off-- I mean insure-- Second Life avatars.Cheyenne Palisadeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17857731023321638792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7329817540513850224.post-77338090954007671832010-10-01T12:21:27.427-07:002010-10-01T12:21:27.427-07:00Still thinking off the top of my head about this.....Still thinking off the top of my head about this...another benefit is that it would give grids without their own established money and e-commerce system the means to offer residents easy access to a large product marketplace.Botgirl Questihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01707252228872837054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7329817540513850224.post-36607715282862489142010-10-01T12:07:44.969-07:002010-10-01T12:07:44.969-07:00I was thinking that to start, it would just be a k...I was thinking that to start, it would just be a kiosk like system. People would pay via the web shopping portal and we would deliver in the appropriate worlds, using the normal mechanism for each one. As they start exposing APIs, we could have a more direct approach.Botgirl Questihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01707252228872837054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7329817540513850224.post-40353740715290732812010-10-01T10:02:12.635-07:002010-10-01T10:02:12.635-07:00So funny!

If you have an account on OSGrid, for example, you can access that same avatar and inventory -- without relogging -- on all the other hypergrid-enabled grids. You can teleport all around. It's pretty cool - but it's limited to only the Hypergrid-enabled grids, not closed grids like InWorldz and SpotOn3D. In theory, the VWRAP system would be accessible to the closed grids, as well, so they don't have to allow in random travelers.<br /><br />-- MariaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7329817540513850224.post-61001174553161622452010-10-01T09:06:30.019-07:002010-10-01T09:06:30.019-07:00The idea first came to my head 10 months ago, when...The idea first came to my head 10 months ago, when I connected a self-hosted OpenSim region to OSGrid and found no aesthetically satisfactory way to de-noob... but I am not a maker of skins, hair, clothing, or shoes.<br /><br />All it would take is a consortium of creators, a website, a repository of files, and a payment system. Finding cooperative creators is the only difficult part, IMO.<br /><br />If it comes to pass, and pre-built homes (and other structures) are desired, I'm there.Lalo Tellinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07711076861284942835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7329817540513850224.post-75011741480344762982010-10-01T08:59:44.419-07:002010-10-01T08:59:44.419-07:00I wish I had the resources to help, but yea I agre...I wish I had the resources to help, but yea I agree... it's definitely an interesting business idea.

A third party storefront that would sell virtual good licensed for multiple worlds. I'm thinking it would world like Apple licensing that allows to use your purchases on up to five platforms. Optionally, you could buy an item for a normal fee, with a smaller upcharge for each additional world added. <br /><br />I'm open to talking about this seriously if anyone has the technical resources and/or business relationships to pull this off.Botgirl Questihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01707252228872837054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7329817540513850224.post-9204518071613697722010-10-01T08:38:41.806-07:002010-10-01T08:38:41.806-07:00Count me in.Count me in.sororNishihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17385408562954387986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7329817540513850224.post-89732463846982780802010-10-01T08:00:42.845-07:002010-10-01T08:00:42.845-07:00Only 10 outfits?
