When it comes to Second Life, I think the SpaceNavigator is an essential camera and movement peripheral.

I find myself unwilling to use SL unless it is plugged in and running.

Heck...

Even the robot finds it difficult to get away from.

I used to give these away at random as gifts, but they've raised the price on them from $50 to $90.

The price of stuff is not supposed to go up like that. Competition and innovation means the price of the same stuff is supposed to go down, not up.

I guess I'll be giving away less of them as gifts.

After I saw it in her offices, Ms. Blackburn gifted this to me yesterday.

If you knew the backstory, you'd realize that things have now come full circle. I couldn't stop laughing at the karmic balance.

(And if you don't, well, some things that happen at SLCC are not for the squeamish or ticklish.)
