Spinning the wheel
Two years of Second Life, two years… Sometimes it feels like a whole life, time into Second Life has some kind of distortion and seems to run much faster than in RL, maybe because is a really dynamic world, always changing.
In this two years i learned a lot, not only about the use of the Client, i learned specially about myself and about human being. I learned about other cultures and points of view, about what’s important for me and for others.
Saw technical evolution of Second Life. When i first logged in “flexible prims” were quite a new thing, i saw the birth of “sculpted prims”, of Windlight, the birth (and death) of cheap OpenSpace sims. Lived really bad performance times, and better ones too. Saw the evolution of “SLFlickr”, of all the social networks related or that we connect with Second Life, like Twitter, Plurk, Koinup, …
Meet wonderful people, creative people, dorks, slaves, animals, men who are a woman, women who are a man, alts, masters, Lindens, dancing bananas… well a really wide rainbow of people. Saw their creations, felt amazed by them. I loved, played, had fun and get bored.
After this two years, after living all that, i still think i don’t know nothing and have everything to do and to learn. After two years i still think the wheel must keep spinning.

That’s a wonderful post Raul!
As a relative newbie myself I do also like hearing stories about how things used to be, as I guess there’s so much in SL that I’ve just come to take for granted because it’s always been there for me.
And indeed, in a world that’s changing and evolving as fast as SL, we’ll never know it all, and to be honest, I think it would take the fun out of it if we did.

I think you are still smarter then I am… then again I am like 23, so is normal to feel ignorant
Anyway, it has been 2 years, hope you’re ready for the 3rd!
