I don't know if there is a list per se, but if you search for Honey's -UK- Couture, I have a newstand in front of that store with many of the leading ones.

I don't have MetaverveMessenger though, and that's one of the biggest.

Metaverse messenger has always been one of my favorites and the one I consider to have the best reputation.

BEST of Second Life is another one...I can't recall whether it's just called BEST or a longer name.

The rest were already mentioned:

My favorites are:

* Metaverse Messenger (M2)
* the Avastar

Interesting thread. I'll search for these magazines/newspapers/blogs.

Question: Other than putting a message into every thread I find interesting, and thereby subscribing to said thread, is their any way to mark a thread "interesting" or the like? There is at least one other forum where you can just mark a thread interesting or not interesting without writing anything in the thread. Is that possible here? There is one thread I kept coming back to because it was interesting, but I didn't have anything to say in it yet so I had it bookmarked. I couldn't figure out how to "mark" it "interesting."

@Arkantos, just to be sure, you have looked thru the "Resident-run Websites" section of the forums, yes?

@Fayruz: to subscribe to a thread without posting, look at the toolbar at the top of a thread and pulldown the "Thread Tools" menu. There's a "subscribe to this thread" choice.

Sure Nika, just that in the threads of auto-promotion you can find all kind of material, from crap to excellent quality. That's why i ask to the people because i know that the personal recommendation has a bigger value and give me an idea about what people like.
