Rez and Tell’s 3 Things I Less Than 3

Friday, January 1st, 2010

So there’s a blogger challenge going around, it was started apparently by Samara Barzane, and asks bloggers to share the three things in their SL inventory they can’t live without.  So I’m joining in with my three things.

3 Things I Love

1, 2, 3....

  1. My Best Friend – Noah Chapman, he’s awesome.  He’s my best friend. We’ve known each other most of my SLife, and he gets me!  Some people say people of the opposite sex can’t be good friends (unless one of them is gay) but that is SO wrong.  Having a guy as a best friend is great, he helps me keep my head on straight, and if I’m having teh dramas he can help fix it.  I really don’t even know what else to say, so let me quote my Picks.
  2. Noah and Ash

    Okay, so. Noah. is Noah. He’s amazing. He’s a lot like me, which makes our conversations amazing because we’re on the same wavelength. But, he’s also a dork. I never hesitate to remind him of this fact. But, I love him for his dorkiness. He’s going to do great things.

    I feel like he’s a missing piece of the puzzle that is me, and I’m glad to have found him. He is honestly one of my best friends ever, and I hope it stays that way forever.

    I’m incredibly proud of him, on so many levels.

  3. Mystitool – A jack of all trades HUD.  Posing, Rezzing, Tables, Radar, Funny Toys… Oh how could I ever try to live without it??
  4. THiNC Printing Press – It helps me publish the in-world edition of SurfWatch, as well as my store catalog. Without it doing either would be a royal pain in my…

Review: Rez and Tell <3′s Intan

Sunday, February 1st, 2009
I have a secret. I am in love with the Intan Dance system. I am probably a bit of a control freak, but I like to have some say in where I dance at a club. RL has spoiled me in this way. In the past I was stuck dancing wherever people decided they wanted their dance balls, and often the spot I wanted had the dance I hated. Alas, no more.
Look familiar? That beautiful little ball on a stick is the savings grace of club owners everywhere. Reduce dance floor clutter while providing your patrons with more control over their actions. Hallelujah! However, the Intan system isn’t just for club or hangout owners, increasingly friends and acquaintances are installing them at their own homes. Recently I even saw an ad for a house rental that came with the system.
I guess the biggest drawback here is the ugly yet suggestive base for the system. Fortunately a slew of alternative designs have come out so that owners can easily mask this or incorporate it into their decor. Even the satellite posts (remember our little tee-ball looking friend?) can be altered to resemble everything from hearts to pumpkins to stars.
Initially the system comes with these familiar friends, Mr. Blue and Mrs. Pink Balls, however even these are changeable, allowing for some true flexibility. This is great for clubs wishing to subtly incorporate the system into their decor. As well as for individuals, my own partner in world has set ours all to sets of black and white hearts for an upcoming vow renewal, and a friend had his as pumpkins for his Halloween party. But aside from personal changes in looks individuals using this system can also add in some more intimate animations, making that date night in all the more stress free, just click a button and you’ve gone from dancing to kissing.

The Intan system costs $1,850L for the bare bones, the ending total is completely dependant on the animations chosen. Popular dance sets can run you around $300L per set, or you can spend the time scouring yard sales for others’ extras and get them for perhaps a little bit cheaper. Any way you do it, I find it’s worth it. You can get started at Intan Eksotics in Sunset Beach.
