Hmm..I thought I just want to let the readers who come across this blog knows that, most of the links to my shop are currently outdated. I am no longer selling anything at any shop in second life.
Currently, most of my items but not all of them are being put at slexchange.

So, if you are interested in buying my items, you can visit them at the aboved given links.
Thank you very much.
Hi all, I will only be selling all my items at www.slexchange.com
Feel free to take a look.
Thank you and take care to all who come across my blog.
Sorri guys. Due to finacial difficulty my parents is facing, I will have to find some real work soon. So, I won't be going to Sl that often any more and mostly, I wont be coming in at all.
Until I have finally find some work, then will I continue in doing my clothes in SL or logging in.
Until then.
Oh man. I have been real busy with RL and other things that I have no time to update my blog. Even recently, I might not be able to log into SL....
I will try to log in when I have the time as well as the complete the clothing design that people have been requesting. ;-)
Oh well...so for now, there isn't any big updates for the moment.
I have finished with my new clothes with design based on the hit anime bleach as well as the hit game of kingdom hearts II.
I have noticed this for quite a while now. From the internet to youtube, from MMORPG to Second life. While each of them seem to be very different from one another but the fact is, they are prety much the same concept to me.
If you noticed, the creator of the internet browser system that lets you serve the web and go to web address are mainly responsible in making it possible. The creator of the internet are not the guys who created those beautiful webpage. They are not the guys who created google, or yahoo search engine. In fact, they are not even the guys who created the thosands or even million of webpage that are out there in the world wide web!! They are not the one who did it. You did. What they do is to make an enviroment for us to create our creation and to showcase to the world.
The same goes for youtube. Those guys who created youtube only make it possible that we can upload our video to their created enviroment. They are not the one who created the contents of youtube, they are not the one who make youtube so interesting, what they did was only to make it all possible for us to create our creation and to showcase to the world.
What about MMORPG and Second life?
Linden Labs are not the guys who created the mighty castle you see somewhere in some God forsaken islands. Neither are they the ones who make those beautiful clothes that you might be wearing now. What they did was merely to create an enviroment possible for us to bring our creation to light and to showcase to the whole world.
So, did you noticed the link?
These successful people are not even resposible for the contents of their work. What they did is to maintain the enviroment, fixed any bugs that it might have and to introuduce new feature so that people can have more toys to play with and added into their own creation.
But does this always work? I have no idea...but I do know that the world have an endless supply of enthusaistic people that are willing to spend their time and effort in showing their own creation. You might say that SL resident do it for money while most of them do it for fun. What about blogging then?
The creators of blogger, do they even write any blog entry?
And so, any thing or product that encourage the mass to participate in will surprisingly be successful after all. Nowadays, people are getting tired of playing with NPC or AI in games. They want more closer contacts with the people from around the world. Just like Msn that can bring people closer together but Secondlife can bring people even close as you can even play with them instead of just tallking.
As you see, in these changing world. Something just never seem to change. While games are getting better nowadays and we are getting closer to one another in every new creation and invention, this formula will never seem to change.
So look out for the next big thing, maybe bigger than second life and you will once again see this same formula. The concept is the same, what is different is only the added feature and stuff that we can never do before. Msn can only talk and play, while SL can do lots of other things as well...so what could be next?
Such is the nightmare of Linden labs and could jolly well be the reason of their contiuing adding of new feature instead of stabilisng the system. Who knows? Maybe the sky will fall on their head tommorow when suddenly, somewhere out there came a next big things called " Third Life "
Since Sl is down, I guess I will write a few things here as I have not been updating my blog since...eons ago. Hahaha
Well...one thing that I discovered is that although SL try to look similar to RL, there is sill one big difference between these 2 and this big difference really is a very BIG difference.
In real life. Everything is about your qualification. What is the highest qualification you have? Which school you attended? Even though you may have a colourful certificate in your hand. But someone with lousy marks and who attended a higher education than you can still win you over your colourful certificate.
Maybe you are good at ABC, you know all 26 alphabets. But the other person is learning grammer and sentences. While he may not be good in it, the fact is...his certificate is more valuable than yours.
In fact, now people are employing people with higher qualification level and it seem that there is no end to the limit of how high they want. Many big companies are willing to pay for talents and their means of searching for talents is to first look at their qualification.
But yet. The world is not about qualification anymore. It may ensure that you could get a job but it cannot ensure that you get that job for life.
A few years back..prehaps 10 to 12 years ago. The concept of talking on a computer screen is so weird that people laugh at you when you tell them it is possible. Video conference is nothing new nowadays right?
How about this? What if 5 years ago. I tell you that everyone can take their phone or video camera and could take video of actual footage at the right place and at the right time for that prized video that may determine everything ! What if they can upload to a website and share to the whole world? Youtube is nothing new nowadays right?
But think. What if you got a degree for this line of work? A photographer? A jornalist? Or someone working in the newspaper industry? What will happened to you? yeah...your cert DID land you into a job but can it last you for life?
Creativity is a powerful tools that many people are using. I think only about 3 people with some great ideas invented youtube. Their invention almost cause many peopke to lose their ricebowl.
How about blogging? Why are you reading these? I believed that there are people who are more highly skilled in writing, much more better than me is out there writing their article. They wrote for money, I wrote for fun. They got their limit on what to say and what not to say but I am my own limit. I choose what to say and think what is not apporiate.
As you can see. Certificate give you steady income but not for life. Creativity makes a big impact....and in SL, it is more of creativity and not certificate.
If you got the skill, if you are truly good at what you are doing. What are you afraid of? If you think you cannot get a job in RL and is able to make things in SL, I believed that you can make it big. one day
As long as you have the skill, SL is there for you.
Haha...Am I advertising for SL?
That is what I have been doing. Trying to put what I know, the skill that I learned and to applied it in SL. I do not need to tell anyone how high my qualification is, all I need is to show my work and my work is my everything in SL.
