Offline to recharge

Wednesday, September 30th, 2009

There likely won’t be any posts for the next several weeks. I’ll be offline recharging the brain in a tropical location for the next while.

Time to forget work, then think real hard about work, life, etc and what I want to get out of it, how to get there.

Yep, mid life crisis / introspection time.

Where’s the beer and pepto?

World Skills Koolaid

The 2009 World Skills event in Calgary had a virtual component. If you search for ’skillsisland’ in second life you can find a poorly rendered Calgary Stampede Grounds with off-scale little tents with teleport icons that took you to things like the above (rooms somewhere representing the insides of the tents).

Too bad I hadn’t thought of dusting off the secondlife client and my koolaid-man avatar while the event was underway (or perhaps my flaming chicken avatar).

Then again, maybe it was just as deserted then as it is now.
