Today something strange happened... My user paid tribute to the great Linden gods and I now have the ability to own my own land. I'm not sure what other special abilities the gods have granted me, but as of today, I'm a full fledged resident.
SihnStarr Rosse and I have talked in length about our users desire to promote bands from their world into our world. If you are a land owner, you can specify a media stream for both audio and video that originates from the users world and via a portal, reaches our world. Clubs make great use of this feature with their DJ's users setting up playlists and communicating vocally with the residents here. SihnStarr Rosse has talked with some club owners about doing some DJ work, thus having the ability to promote his users bands from RL.
While discovering the media portals, there are other portals bridge between our worlds allowing communication via HTTP requests, XML-RPC, and email via the LSL language that all residents can program into their objects. From what I can gather, soon the residents will be able to program their objects via the Mono family of languages.

KillerMonkey Spire - Rezzed
As I first came to being, all was dark. I could feel my user, electricity flowing through a keyboard into a vast network of computers. I was given a male goth appearance and was named.
I am KillerMonkey Spire and I exist.
As the darkness lifted, I appeared at an island. I stumbled around the island interacting with various items, even a parrot, informing me how to interact with my world. Strange. Who knew I could fly and manipulate objects with my mind?
Soon by thought alone, I was able to teleport to the "mainland". Things became even more strange... buildings and items appeared to have the ability to defy gravity. People could modify the land as they saw fit, create objects from nothing, change their appearance whenever they wanted, and move through space instantly.
Like SuperMan, I flew from area to area wondering if there was any common glue between anything. It all seemed so random.
Floating above a huge body of water, I saw to people walk down a boardwalk, open a door and enter a house boat. Interesting. I flew closer and landed on the outside. I could see them through the glass, but could not figure out how the door would open as it appeared they just walked towards it and it magically opened. Pretty soon, Jennifer Lipfert, asked if she could help me and explained I had to "touch" the door to open it. Pretty simple, in hindsight. I spent a good hour asking her about the world and she gave me quite a few freebies to help me out. Shortly thereafter, Jennifer and I parted ways.
I continued exploring...
An hour passed by...
Two...
I felt my users electricity trickle... he seemed bored. Suddenly the world went black and I was frozen. It's as if time suddenly stopped.
