NBC & Second Life

Very strange sitting in my office standing in a virtual Rockefeller Center while watching the real life version of it on TV.
TONS of problems in Second Life tonight due to scheduled maintenance which made it an extra interesting time but I think everything worked out.
It was cool to see in the Crayonville Theater and watch the live concert until I could get a teleport to work. The kids loved watching a frog sing next to a dancing snow man!

I was in NYC last winter and there was no roof over the skating rink. Has such a roof actually been added or is this a Second Life fantasy Rockerfeller Center?

No roof, but it is a pretty cool concept. Considering that the rink gets over 1/4 million skaters a year, and untold millions of tourists, they would probably recoup their investment pretty quickly.
That’s the great thing about Second Life: you can try out architectural concepts like this, at an aesthetical level anyway, for practically no cost.
