The continuing discussion will set us free! As Amanda knows, some bright bulbs at our PR agency started a "Fucktard with Feelings" group in Second Life. Group Charter: Fucktards are people too. We are a shrinking number of marketing and PR professionals who will try not ruin all that is good about Second Life. Group Haiku: You couldn't care less For the crap we are flinging Annoy in both worlds Any Herald readers care to join? Our tech PR firm has been having fun in SL - helps that our client, Podcast Ready, has a pool/hot tub, jet ski, movie screen, etc. I can justify it at work because we've even had journalists interview/publish - and most importatntly, we got to hang out with Strumpette a while ago. For now, I'm still intrigued by major brands joining the SL community a few years late. I'm also intrigued how overt (aka clueless) marketers are behaving and being perceived. Glad that you both are on the prowl for said Fucktards and their boorish behavior. Makes it easier for the limited number of PR flacks who have a clue about how to interact in the First and Second Life. Nice job by both parties in this post. The continuing discussion will set us free!

Our tech PR firm has been having fun in SL – helps that our client, Podcast Ready, has a pool/hot tub, jet ski, movie screen, etc. I can justify it at work because we’ve even had journalists interview/publish – and most importatntly, we got to hang out with Strumpette a while ago.

For now, I’m still intrigued by major brands joining the SL community a few years late. I’m also intrigued how overt (aka clueless) marketers are behaving and being perceived.

Glad that you both are on the prowl for said Fucktards and their boorish behavior. Makes it easier for the limited number of PR flacks who have a clue about how to interact in the First and Second Life.

But I must ask this, "Oh this! Today, I am totally business casual. I am wearing a Silk Kimono Wrap Top by Vera Wang along with Black Wool Pants by Armani Collezioni. These Gray Mules are Manolo Blahnik. The necklace is by Harry Winston." shouldn't that actually read "Oh this! Today, I am totally business casual. I am wearing knockoffs of real world designers work such as a Silk Kimono Wrap Top by Vera Wang along with Black Wool Pants by Armani Collezioni. These Gray Mules are Manolo Blahnik. The necklace is by Harry Winston." As far as I know those groups haven't moved inworld to sell their designs, but then I am a bit behind on the fashion scene. Just a technical point. Still though interesting piece, I would love to hear Amanda's views of the functional and necessary aspects of PR. I know PR can be a good thing, and I find it refreshing to hear that perhaps not all of it coming into SL is just chasing trend. Interesting.
