Whoa! That’s like $350 USD per month! The contest is titled “Second Life and the Public Good: A Community Challenge” by the USC Network Culture Project.

The USC Network Culture Project invites the residents of Second Life to imagine new ways that virtual worlds such as Second Life can be used to make a contribution to the public good.

We are currently accepting proposals from groups, organizations, or individuals for projects that show how Second Life can enhance, develop, or sustain the public good. The best submissions will be selected based on how well they demonstrate the significance of virtual worlds for making an impact on society or culture.

Up to three finalists will be selected by community vote. The finalists will be provided with a $100,000L per month building stipend (and land, if required) for three months to execute their proposal. The projects will be showcased in Second Life at the State of Play conference to be held in Chicago, October 2008.

Yesterday, I found my little and very humble place in Second Life GONE! For no apparent reason (if there was any then I surely didn’t know about it), all my objects were returned to me. I asked Richard Palace about it by sending him an instant message which, unfortunately, he did not receive but, at least, now he knows about it.

Anyway, complaining (I’m not really complaining) about it will not return my objects back to their original places, so I spent a few hours today returning (almost) everything back to where they were before. Well, not exactly to where they were. You see, I kinda did a little rearranging of the place and I also removed some objects which I don’t really need and brought back the nature look.

First Opinions Panel is a great source of earning Linden Dollars for your Second Life. For those not familiar to First Opinions Panel, it is a survey/research group in Second Life and it pays residents for answering surveys. To participate, you must first become a member and you can do that by signing-up here. Members are paid 500L$, even more, per survey. Unfortunately for me, I don’t get that many survey invites. It must be because my profile doesn’t match any of their clients survey requirements but that doesn’t stop me from earning Linden Dollars from them.

A few days ago while searching for new ways to earn linden dollars, I stumbled upon Cube Surveys. The surveys they offer are very easy to answer and can be completed in 5 minutes or less. The pay per survey isn’t very high though. It’s only at 20L$ per survey and when I was there they only have one survey available but I believe that they’re still in the process of building the place.

Surveys are taken inside small booths and you need to take a sit to initiate the survey. The survey, like many surveys in Second Life, will load in an external web page. Answer the questions truthfully and after you finish you need to touch a box, or in this case a safe, which is in the booth to claim your pay. [read full entry to learn more about Cube Survey...]

I was at my place just relaxing, listening to Pinoy music and thinking of how to better conserve prims. For land owners and renters, prim count is very important because we do not want to go above our prim limit. Extra prims cost money!
