Linden Lab continue to impress with their Destination Guide promotion and their latest blog post highlighting the destination guide contains some real gems.

The Chamber Library officially opened just a few days ago on September 21st and is already being expanded, with Storm hoping to have a new chamber open by September 29th.

There’s also a section for budding Second Life authors, more on that later.
