The Dickens project
Second Life – The Dickens Project celebrates its sixth year in Second Life with a return to Linden Endowment for the Arts Region 7, where the annual celebration of Charles Dickens' seminal work first was realized in full region form a year ago. Offering four weeks of exploration, storytelling, music, dance, a new "Urchins in Dickens London" experience, this Second Life holiday tradition will be open to residents November 30th, through December 30th.
The Dickens Project is produced by Seanchai Library (Shawn-a-kee, which means "Storyteller" in Irish), which was founded in March of 2008 in Second Life. Thousands of stories, and hundreds of authors later, the program remains dedicated to promoting the power of stories to transform and inspire through live voice presentations: "We bring stories of all kinds to life, in Second Life."

2018 PEOPLE : Friendica for social media?
Friendica for social media?
Friendica is opensource software for social media communication. The software is free, but somebody has to create a node (on a server) to run the software. Nodes can connect with each other so it is a distributed network. A grid could be part of a node.
- friendica – A Decentralized Social Network
- Friendica is open source software for a distributed social network.
- Friendica is part of the democratization of the internet.
- Thus its operation plan is less familiar than the G+ plan (whatever that was).
- To become a user you don't go to the Friendica website.
- You find a Friendica node and register there.
- You can immediately connect with others registered on your base node.
- You can also connect with others on Friendica or others on the Fediverse
- To connect outside of your base node, you need to know the Friendica address.
- Friendica is part of the Fediverse, "an interconnected and decentralized network of independently operated servers."
