[|Cafe Wellstone] This is a place obviously named for the late great Senator Paul Wellstone from Minnesota. It consists of a Democrat themed building where a large number of avatars meet up and discuss politics. I was there on February 5 “Super Tuesday” and there were 30 plus avatars packed in the building discussing the primary results as they came in, there was also a lot of good discussion about Former Senator John Edwards and his role in the primaries of the fifth even though he had already suspended his campaign. There has been some new building outside cafe wellstone. I took some pictures.

[|Sweden] I was recently looking at Sweden’s Embassy website for reasons unrelated to Second Life and discovered a posting on the website announcing Sweden’s Second Life Island. So… I decided to check it out. I thought it might be cool to see what a socialist country’s island would be like and how it would differ from a capitalist country’s island.

[|Long Island] This place is very cool it is full of carnival rides just like a mirror image of a first life carnival. There were like two avatars that were parent- like and two child avatars, which was very strange. The interaction of between this second life avatar family was like a first life family but given this situation it was very creepy. Kentucky Capalini and I even took pictures on the rides and in the photo booth!

[|The United States] This island is great! It really is just like the United States. The island is full of strip malls and condos with parks in between them where you can ride the ducks.

[|Capital Hill]

Capital hill is a very cool island to visit it has a lot of things that are similar to the first life Capital hill and some cheeky editions. I found a donkey topiary as well as elephant topiary. I also discovered a SL version of the Washington Monument with a secret office at the top. There was a link to online voters registration and some political issues related to college costs. Overall it was interesting and ice-skating is great too!
