Ya'know Dave.. if I didn't know better I'd say you were a PADDER! ^.~

But what the heck. YAY! Live at last, live at last! Thank dog almighty, we're live at last! Er.. wait, Lindens should be saying that yeah? Had lots of fun at the party last night (even more when NexCorp trudged wearily home to Nexus Prime and I got to see the noisemaker for the first time, W00T). It was great to see SO many familiar faces, as well as wish some dear friends on their way to other ventures.

Thanks for making such a wonderful place to stretch our creative wings and fly, Lindens.

There are already some new things checked into the 1.1 codebase... there's no way we're stopping at 1.0.

Yay Linden Labs! Congrats on going live. I was unable to make it to the party due to high traffic, but I was there in spirit!

One thing I have to say is the rate of updates and bug fixes have been great during the beta, and I hope to see it continue. SL works way better now than it did in May when I signed up. Haven't had a crash in a long time! :-)

BTW, I've been meaning to ask...why "Linden"? I don't see anyone named Linden in the company, so where did this name come from? Just curious! Oh, and what's with the hippos?

Hippo's rule doncha know!

Even Linden Labs agree, while we couldn't get a firm committal by Phillip last night that htey were the SL official animal.

Hit this key stroke ctrl, alt, shift, H and i think we all will know who the official animal of SL is. Phillip just didn't want to discriminate against other animals last night.
