I am an avid user of Second Life. Like any medium, you can waste your time in it or not. I love to watch TV. Some programs teach you new things. Some others give you brain rot. I may think that Danielle Steel's nove…

Sí, comprendo que se te haga un poco raro el agrupar libros tan diversos como de cocina, ficción, etc, dentro del mismo saco, por el mero hecho de estar escritos en el mismo idioma. Creo que mi lógica fue el categorizar…

My concept of commitment is turning out to be very different from yours. I believe that when someone agrees to join a ring/ray, they are making an implicit promise to follow the guidelines. And because another definiti…

Once you get some people interested in joining your ray, it is also important that you do a "background check" on them. An easy way to do that is by searching the forum. If you find posts titled "ISO so-and-so", that m…
