LL CEO and the Future

Posted on April 18, 2014 by Namaara Posted in Virtual News

It’s been a bit of a roller coaster ride for anyone who has been a part of the Second Life community for more than a heartbeat and especially challenging for those of us who have been around a few years or more. Seems with all of Linden Labs’ good intentions we can’t,in many ways, seem to get SL to move forward and become more robust. Here’s a little about Ebbe Linden (aka Ebbe Altberg) from the LL press release in February:  “… prior to joining Linden Lab, Altberg was COO of BranchOut. Prior to that, he was part of the executive team at Yahoo!, most recently as SVP of Media Products. His more than 25 years of experience managing teams that create world-class products and services also includes leadership roles at Ingenio (acquired by at&t Interactive) and Microsoft.”

And here’s a link to Jo Yardley’s blog post about a recent meeting with Ebbe in Second Life: (http://joyardley.wordpress.com/2014/02/19/chatting-with-ebbe-altberg-new-ceo-of-linden-lab/).

Watch his keynote at WVBPE  (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7pPgEHq7wo).  He stated early on that he is working with Legal Counsel to try to try to figure out how to make it crystal clear that the creators of the content own the content. That’s a great start. He also talked about Oculus. Another step in the right direction. All in all I was impressed. My fingers are crossed.

Welcome! We’re all NEW!

Etopia has been Second Life’s premier sustainability community sine 2007. During that time we’ve tweaked, rebuilt, expanded, and continued to create a community in Second Life that demonstrates what our real lives can be. Our website, on the other hand, hasn’t kept up. Our site was static, the blog left to wilt, and our followers dwindled. But no more.

Our website has a new look. It’s also built on a WordPress platform for easier administration and (hopefully) faster and more frequent updates. This website is part of a complete communications effort that includes an Etopia Facebook, my twitter, this blog, and LinkedIn.

Visit Etopia, “Like” our Facebook page, follow me on Twitter, and let’s connect on LinkedIn.
