Snowball Technology Now Available in SL
Posted Wednesday, January 3rd, 2007, at 11:21 am Eastern by Mark Wallace
It still hasn’t snowed here in Brooklyn (Capital of the Metaverse), but you can now make it snow in the virtual world of Second Life — or at least, you can make it snow somewhere near your intended target, by using Ordinal Malaprop’s new snowball launchers, which I blogged a few days ago but which are now available for sale. There’s a free snowball rifle and two premium products available at Ordinal’s Steampunk shop »in the Caledon sim«, as well as a video on Ordinal’s blog. Happy new year!

Heh. i was talking about a ’similarly functioned’ device recently. Only with ping pong balls ;) *ahem*
Okay, so, Ordinal is a good guy, and a decent builder. But, Mark, seriously … isn’t two articles about one product in SL a bit of hype? I mean, essentially anyone could take a Linden-freebie snowball, stuff it into a Linden-freebie gun, make the barrels look iron and rusty, and you’d have something not too far off. Seriously, how’s this product any notable leap in technology from the other 10,000 guns in SL?
Is 3pointD.com now a SL product advertiser? And if so, where can I plug my katanas? *chuckles*
Hiro, don’t drink and post ;-]
The notable difference between this product and the 10,000 other guns is that I like this one better. And if you look closely, you’ll see that I do not advertise the content on this blog as “all technology advances, all the time.”
