Kite Co

Recently I met and started to work for Sim and Zaya Chrispson, as a marketing agent. Their umbrella company is Kite Co. Kite Co incorporates a few other businesses as do most umbrella companies.

In this case, the cart came before the horse. Sim started off with 6 Kinds of Wednesday, 6KW is the mainstay of Kite Co. With no inworld store, 6KW is strictly Market Place accessible. Sim started his KiteCo Corporation with this inexpensive but extremely well made full perm textures. If you are a builder and have never taken a look at what 6KW has to offer, you really need to take a look. Please review what you think of them.

Kitemart [K*M] – A Market Place department superstore that houses several product lines and brands owned and/or distributed by Kite Co. and its various divisions. They Include Lily’s Farm-aceuticals, [VBV] Venderful Beverage Vendors, !AF! Angry Ferret, and Slushy. Again no inworld store and is strictly available on the market place

The other companies are as follows.

** Mayday Aviation Lounge ^MAL^ This lounge/bar and its decor are centered around Airplane crashes!

There is an upper deck and a lower deck. This DJ session takes place on the upper deck. The RUNWAY PLANE CRASHES are every 10 minutes. A very unique event to experience.

Mayday proudly carries unique aviation-themed beer, wine, and cigars made by [VBV] Venderful Beverage Vendors. Belly up to the bar and watch, listen, dance, and just relax and have a great time. Drop a notecard and let us know what you think of Mayday.

Mayday Aviation Lounge ^MAL^ is a division of Kite Co.

Next we have The Shhh! Silent Movie Theatre. A simply wonderful step back in time. Open 24 hours for your viewing pleasure. A free Inworld silent movie theater experience that pays homage to amazing movies and performers from the silent movie era, including Charlie Chaplin, Harold Lloyd, and Buster Keaton. A fun trip into the fantasy of yesterday! Completely done in black and white. This brings back silent movies and is a wonderful place for a date night.

Then we have Kaleidoscope Eyes Breakfast Cafe. A Beatles themed cafe where you can listen to Beatles music, Experience that “hippie” side of yourself. It is quite amazing! Do you remember the old kaleidoscopes? Visiting this charming venue is like stepping back into the 60s. A free cafe featuring a breakfast buffet. It exclusively hosts Lily’s Farm-aceuticals brand Herbal Teas. It’s decor is based around the song “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds’ by The Beatles.

Ok, well I have saved my personal favorite until last! RESET Retro Arcade. If you remember Mario Brothers, PacMan, Arcade games. OMG and not only are these cutouts life-size they are so realistic!!! I was, to be honest, STUNNED when I first saw them. All textures were made by Sim Chrispson. A free Inworld Arcade featuring playable 1980’s/1990’s game cabinets and decor.

How Second Life Can Help People Lose Real Weight

Just over a year ago I blogged :Baylor College Of Medicine Utilising Second Life To Aid Women With Physical Limitations Lose Weight. That post looked at a program designed to help women lose weight when exercise is not really an option due to their physical limitations.

Fast forward to January 29th and wheelchair user Terri O’Hare has blogged about her experience of the program. The post is not too lengthy but well worth a read. Terri explains how it was with some major reluctance that she entered the virtual world of Second Life, due to the fact that she thought it would be largely inhabited by thirteen year old boys. However, she soon discovered that this was not the case :

At first I strongly resisted Second Life (SL), figuring it was a fantasy world full of 13 year-old boys. But then I actually entered it after a training session and walked, flew, and jumped around the beautiful “world” our program instructors built just for us.

That space included a workout area complete with yoga, bicycles, rock climbing and more. Terri also describes how she became attached to her avatar.
