Here's the menu to the feast of fun...which talks are you planning on coming to hear? https://conference.opensimulator.org/schedule/

Lyr Lobo talking about Shopping and Content in Opensim, on Inworld Review. Do you agree with her suggestions and opinions?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3mnUpxoTi8


Arielle: What specific suggestions and opinions are you meaning @Thirza Ember? Can you point to the time of the show you are referring to? 11 months ago
Inworld Review this week was on Neverworld celebrating their 8th birthday, and learning about the grid's unique connection to The Grateful Dead. Watch the show on Youtube Thanks to Govega Sachertorte and Nexus Storm for being the guests

inworld Review is a weekly talk show by Mal Burns about opensim people and places, taped inworld every Sunday at 12 noon SLT. You can watch Live on youtube, comment and ask questions, or join us in the audience, or perhaps you'd like to be a guest on the show, send and IM to Thirza here in osw to learn more.
Small change to OSW home page possible?
Opensimworld is such a great resource for opensim - love it! The home page has so much useful info on it.
My request - could The Box be moved further down the page? Maybe swap with Events or Bookmarks? Just because more often than not The Box is so depressingly infantile and completely useless to anyone looking for information.
Summer fun across opensim, with 4 more posts for you, if you missed it. Here we go - a long weekend of Alternate events, an Ai art exhibition, an Iberian village, and an opinion piece by 3 participants in the upcoming OSFest.

sad comment Icons
Today there was a post about the closing of a really nice grid, and I want to put an icon showing I am sorry it's going.
The only non-happy comment icon is the prayer symbol - not appropriate. I don't want to encourage negativity on OSW but... can we have a face with a tear? Also a "wow" face would be a great icon to add.

Kelso.Uxlay: I second this excellent suggestion! 1 years ago
HG Safari trips return for the Fall Season in 6 weeks from now !
Our schedule is pretty much full, but if you'd like your region to be put on the standby list, or want to save a spot in the next season's schedule (starting Jan 2024), just drop me a word here in osw. Don't be shy !

Do you know anyone who suffers from this common hypergrid misconception ?

Arielle: Some of the early iterations of the ToS's some Grids put up for authorization, sounded like they collected and held on to all information about visitors for 7 years, not just IP. 1 years ago

Hi all, Maria Korolov is joining us tomorrow for the first Safari of the Fall season.
The announced venue has changed, though. Meeting at the OSgrid clubhouse, not on the Safari annex. That's because Avacon grid had something happen with its servers, and although it is back online and lovely, there is a bug in Textures. https://opensimworld.com/events/92284
Do you like chatting in French? Do you want to explore the hyperverse with a gallic air? Then the Soirees Franco are right up your alley. Or should that be allee? Learn more here https://hgsafari.blogspot.com/2022/09/soirees-franco.html
