Merry Christmas

On behalf of the Red Dragon Nite Club, 

Merry Christmas and all the best for 2014.

Keep posted for dates & times of the OSG new years party.  

Something new

Not on the grids. Here on the Blog. A Youtube list. You get to pick your own random Christmas Song. Stuff from the 80's up to today. Mind i didn't make any of these.... Youtube approved all of them. Flames about farting elves can best directly be posted in the comments below the respective video(s).

D&J 5th year anniversary

Friday 22-11 i attended the 5th anniversary of D&J's and celebrated with what is likely the oldest club in the metaverse. For the occasion we were not on the close encounter ( D&J Home region ) but you can visit the region by finding  "Feriae Quinquennial" on the map.

With 5 years of non stop party's every friday, (and trust me, i have done so for 3 years in SL. this takes dedication, devotion, and loads of it ) Dorothea and Jay are true "Pillars of Community". Respect, and a big thanks for all the fun & good times are in place here, and i assume i can safely post this is on behalf of a lot of OSG residents. Keep rocking, and hope to be at the 10 year celebration as well.

The party was great, and busy, I saw a lot of familiar names (couldn't recognise anyone, as all were dressed up in Roman outfits), and also talked to some people i hadn't seen in months. If you have some spare time, you should visit this region just to check out the build. It is detailed, and beautifully made.
A Video impression thingy of the party can be found HERE .

Software

In case you need more / different free tools that you can't find in the links section you might want to browse the list in our freshly updated "Downloads" page. (it's available under the button in the top Menu).

The downloads are not necessarily directly related to opensimulator or metaverses, but can still be very useful, as they link directly to download pages from their creator rather than vague download or torrent sites. Like our links section below the posts, the download page will be frequently updated with fresh goodies, so expect it to grow over time.To avoid making the list too long, check Ninite first, for basic needs.

Some of the software you will already know or even have installed, others might be very useful, but might have gone unnoticed. It's a handy reference list if you need something specific quickly, not having to click around search results and you avoid being bombarded with adds and laggy download managers, toolbars and other crap. Mind it's just a list of software, which may or  may not work for your specific quest.

In any case, hope it's useful to you Enjoy !
