From: someone
I'm starting a new company, and wanted to let you know. It's a big idea - something that actually depends on Second Life existing to get started, and that I have been thinking about almost as long as I've been thinking about Second Life. I don't want to try to explain the idea here, because it is a decision I've just made and honestly I don't think I can do a good job describing it yet. But I did want to tell the whole SL community, because I don't want you to worry that anything is wrong:

I will still be chairman, as I have been since leaving the job as CEO. The change is that I'm not going to be working full-time at Linden Lab anymore (some of you might have thought I wasn't still there, but actually I have been!). I'll still be doing the same outbound and media type things as before - talking about Second Life, etc.


WOW!!

Why say goodbye to somebody who's not leaving?

I also am relinquishing my honorary role as Princess of Jeogeot. I will still be around just as much as before, and technically I'll still retain the title, I just won't perform any of the duties any more (e.g throwing three ceremonial bread rolls into the sea at Yong Beach at sunrise on the anniversary of SL's launch each June )
