Yet another holiday season is upon the virtual landscape, and Second Life residents are preparing in a variety of ways. Additionally, Linden Lab has brought Winterfest back for another year.

Winterfest 2010, a week-long tribute to wintertime activities in Second Life, runs through December 18.  On Dec. 14, several live music events are scheduled. Jean Munro performs at 2 pm SLT, while Keiko Takamura will entertain at 5 pm, with The Follow rounding out the day at 6pm.

I'm Facebook friends with quite a few people I know from Second Life, and I have been amazed to discover that many of them never of seldom log in anymore.

I've asked why, and the reasons are pretty varied. Some grew bored with the virtual world, while others grew tired of the vast amount of in-world drama. Some have become disenchanted with Linden Lab while others dislike how commercial SL has become. But invariably, many of those who came to SL five or six years ago are no longer part of the community.

Seven years is an impressive age for any online world, when many virtual worlds and MMORPG's fall by the wayside well before that age.

This week, Second Life reached that age and celebrated with its annual birthday sims, events and more.

The party was run over just a single week, compared to previous years two, but as always, it is themed.

This year's theme was "Unexpected Collaborations," which leaves a lot to the imagination.

The date July 24th was chosen as the date for International Femdom Day as a day for celebrating dominant women - 7/24 - seven days a week and 24 hours a day. There are real life celebrations going on from St. Louis and New York to Berlin and beyond. The Femdom Community in SL group is bringing the whole event virtual for those who do not have the opportunity for a RL venue.

Though some of what residents explore in Second Life is totally from the pure imagination of others, much of it is reincarnated places, events and experiences from First Life.

Residents can visit an English village, parts of Paris, or even Amsterdam. Many people enjoy sky diving, swimming and surfing. Musical concerts abound, as do theatrical plays. A lot of what is in First Life crosses over into Second Life.
