Hiyas Hun - What's happening tonight ...

... or - 'Hiyas Hun when's the next party?' and of course I could carry on recording a dozen variations without too much trouble. The important thing about all of these variations is they are all reasonable questions and in truth any Sim that plans on being successful and providing entertainment needs to find a way to provide the answers to them.

At OneFinalDarkness we have a multi-layered approach because we have found that one solution definitely does not fit all. There are of course the traditional Second Life groups, which, for people fairly new to Second Life is a solution because they won't necessarily have reached the 25 group limit. Interestingly most people seem to acquire groups fairly quickly but over a period of time there is a turn over till as a resident really settles into Second Life the really essential groups become fixed and they will no longer be able/willing to accept groups. To accommodate this situation we use a product called Subscribe-O-Matic; this is a web based service which is accessed by residents using in world objects and is managed by the Subscribe-O-Matic group owner on the Service Web Site. The flexibility of Subscribe-O-Matic is excellent and like SL groups people can choose to subscribe to it or remove themselves. As yet another layer we have developed a Web Site specifically for the OneFinalDarkness Estate and, although still developing, it covers all the major aspects of the Sims including the events by way of an Included Google Calendar and RSS Feeds for the Subscribe-O-Matic. The final layer which we provide is also accessible through our website and that is a Blog dealing with the history and day to day happenings in the OneFinalDarkness Estate ... but you already know about that because you are reading it *S*

Sooo ... these days when any one of the many variations of 'Hiyas Hun - What's happening tonight?' turns up we at least feel prepared with a battery of answers and of course a note card with all the relevant details and links included ... plus of course a sexy smile *S*
