Rom Ireton Is Back!

Friday, February 1st, 2008

This is an update to my account being suspended for disturbing the peace. Just a few hours ago, after clarifying with Linden Labs Support Team, my account was reactivated. This morning, I received an e-mail from them informing me that my account has been reactivated.

Your account has been reactivated…

…You should be able to log in using the password that the account was set up with. If you do have problems with the password you can reset it by going to the Second Life website.

I would like to thank Linden Labs Support Team for their quick and prompt response and for the immediate resolution of my account’s issue.

Not My Lucky Day :(

Wow! After this blog was defaced by some people you’d think everything will be fine afterwards, right? NOOOOO!!! Today, I received an e-mail from Linden Labs informing me that my Rom Ireton account was suspended for disturbing the peace at LiaisonLand.

“The violation in question occurred on January 30, 2008 in the region of LiaisonLand.”

Ouch! Kabalyero.com Defaced!

Wednesday, January 30th, 2008

Just a few hours ago, I was shocked to find this blog defaced by some people. I immediately informed BlueHost about it and they immediately restored my entire account to a previous backup. Yes, the restoration process made me lose a few post in some of my blogs but I guess that was the best way to correct what has been done to the blog.

BlueHost advised me to update my scripts and change my passwords which I did after the restoration. The restoration took only a few minutes. (more…)

Viral Linking? Tagging? It?

Friday, January 25th, 2008

Checking my dashboard today, I saw some incoming links from the following blogs:

They all came from a post with a topic of viral linking and tagging. Honestly, I’m not very familiar with this viral linking or tagging thing. I’ve read about it but I’ve never been tagged before. Today I received 5 incoming links and I don’t know what to do with it. Yes, I’ve read the rules but it didn’t mention anything about multiple incoming links. :(

Anyway, I’m linking back to the above mentioned blogs to acknowledge and thank them for linking to Kabalyero.com. ;)

Streaming Videos At 3 Stars and a Sun

Monday, January 7th, 2008

Yesterday, I converted 3 of my videos to .MOV and uploaded them to blip.tv. Blip.tv is very much like YouTube except that blip.tv provides a direct link to the uploaded video in its actual format which in my case .MOV. This allowed me to stream the video from blip.tv into my place in Second Life, 3 Stars and a Sun, by copying the URL of the link and pasting it on my rented land’s media field.

3 Stars and a Sun

To better control the streams I used FreeView where you can place the URLs in a notecard. I also placed a huge 20×20x0.5 box and used it as a huge viewer.

3 Stars and a Sun

Currently, the video that is streaming is Gladiator Fights.

Video must be enabled on your Second Life client to play video streams. If not then you must enable it in your Preferences under Audio and Video. Once enabled just click the play button on the movie tab which is at the bottom of your screen, just above the toolbar.

If you wish to use the streams in your own land then just go to my blip.tv channel, select a video, click on This episode’s permalink, then copy the url of the link named Download Quicktime (.mov) and paste it on your land’s media field.
