2014 PROMO: MySL is my 4th choice of social media to promote virtual world (SL) projects.

MySL is my 4th choice of social media 
to promote virtual world (SL) projects.
-
How to use MySL to promote virtual world (Second Life)  projects.
-

• MySL  offers valuable communication services to people in SL.
• Good for promoting events just before and while they happen.
• You take a picture and post it to your friends, with a location link.
• Use MySL for promoting your event, with pictures
• Good for promoting your blog posts 

But...

• Limited to Second Life distribution.
• Was poorly maintained for a while.
• Pages failed to load (probably slow servers).  
• Images sometimes failed to post.
• Location links were missing (probably coding error).
• Location links working now. 
• But loading and posting of pictures are still unreliable.
• Continued maintenance and reliable operation are uncertain.
• SL allows post-to-facebook.  
• Facebook offers wider distribution, better targeting via groups. 
• Best use both outlets, Facebook first, then MySL, if it works,
