A year ago yesterday I made a big change in my life. I traded my PC Laptop for a Powerbook. It was not so much a big change, I had macs since they first came out. When it came to computers, I go both ways. But I was used to playing an online game called TSO. I played it mostly at work, where there was a lot of downtime. I still had a PC at home but my LCD Mac, the one with the gooseneck, was my main computer at home. So by trading my PC laptop, I was in effect going Mac almost all the way. This meant no more TSO. I realized I would have to find a new Online Game.

So I did a quick search online and found several mac compatible games. One was 2-d, one was basically whacking poor little animals to gain points and another was Second Life. I realized I had tried Second Life a few months earlier but hadn't really stuck with it that long. I decided to try it again. That was August 3, 2004.

It's been a glorious year. I've done some things I only dreamed about in TSO. I've had so much fun and met so many wonderful creative, talented people.

So thanks SL for a wonderful year, thanks LL for making a cool game and thanks to all of you for enriching this game for me.
