Gaming

So...I was surprised at the gaming exercise in our 20 for 2.0. In my household gaming has been labeled something like the plague. It went on for waaayyyy to long and we regret the time our kids could have been outside riding bikes, getting dirty, catching snakes and bugs and generally running wild and unchecked. (Like we use to do when we were kids)

This is where we learn alot of life skills and not (in my opinion) in a simulation.

However, I pressed on and tried Deal-No Deal. Holy Crap!!!! I was sucked into a vortex outside space and time. So as of now, I am going to forget I ever heard of online Deal-No Deal. I'm going outside and sink my hands into the dirt and get some perspective again.

Maps and Geotagging

Wow!!! It's easy and fun to hang out at google earth. I of course found my house, my mother's house, all my brothers, some friends and then zoomed in on our Island. Looks really neat to see the color change with the water depth change and the land rise up from the point of view.

Went around the world and looked at the Great Pyramid, Red Square, Hawaii and Kilamanjaro.

Gotta get back to work now :0[

Avatars & Second Life

So you need a whole other 2nd life to be in Second Life. While it's interesting and I'm sure even fun for some (who don't have a job, or a 1st life) I'm gonna have to pass on doing anything more concrete than browsing. I got my meez on and I'm good with that.

Sooooooo....If I can continue to receive pay to learn to build a Second Life, please let me know and cc my manager. I'll drop the 1st and move right into the next.
