CSI:NY in SL from the YouTube

Can I just start by saying that this wasn't my experience with SL at all. However, I think it's kind of cool when user generated content laden items from popular culture get referenced in other places like TV. I also thought it was interesting the blending of the gladiator fights with SL. I'm sure there are some Colosseums in SL but haven't been to any myself yet. This episode begs another question for me, namely, who is the current "Paris Hilton" of SL? Any ideas?

Another Newb's Blog

I found these blogs today and thought anyone interested in another newb's experience might like to see these as well.

What I found interesting in the posts from this one was under: A little insight in the person behind Lynn Evelyn (a.k.a. Coming out of the closet). It was about experimenting with gender in SL to keep SL and real life separated but also as a kind of protection.

This blog was interesting in that another person felt the need to blog about their experiences from Day 1 in SL much like I did. However, that is the only post. I wonder if they gave up the blog or the blog and SL both or what? I liked the title though...My Second Birth. Maybe it's morbid but is this person even still alive? No posts since 2006...hmm.
