Get ready to be smacked in your head and stop memorizing those zillions of HTML tags (which I already did zillions of years ago). VisiBone offers cheatsheets for web developers for most common stuff we use daily from HTML or Javascript to color codes and color schemes. I need one of those!
You won’t realize how funny it is unless you have played this game before.

Today, despite of my studies in the waiting list, I decided to wander around IBM island on Second Life to kill my boredom and get ready to study.
When I teleported to the island at first, I saw the big model of IBM area on second life in front of me. The model shows the structure of the area and names written on each structure. I was stunned with the design and look of the area.
And behind me its IBM Recruitment which seems a circular area with seats surrounding it from all directions.
The model shows the name of each area, when I click on the area it shows me the way to that area with an arrow in the screen and a mark on the map.
My first destination is Virtual Universe Community. The area is very huge, on my way I passed through IBM Theater as you can see in the screenshot. It’s like a conference area with a huge screen on the middle of the area.
As I entered the target building, there was a nicely designed fountain surrounded by circular stairs which I’m standing on it as in the screenshot.
Just next to me is the Guildmaster office to contact the community’s Guildmaster Boris Frampton. No one was on the office and there was a note on the table written on it the email address of the guildmaster.
I went up all the way to the end of the stairs, it is the conference room. In the board/screen, as you can see in the pictures, a schedule for next meeting is 14th June with some key points. Now its July so it seems it’s outdate!
I’ll continue the journey in next post which should be soon.
