Hello and welcome

Welcome to this, which will hopefully be the first in many blogs. I am by admittance a Tech Head and Media Junkie.
I really love way too many Tech and Media things, and hope to use this to my advantage to fill this Blog.
At the Weekend (16 May 2009) it was time for Doctor Who, the longest running Sci-fi (and not sy-fy, though in the US this is where you can find it, and also BBC America) Series ever. Despite a lull in things due to a BBC Director (Who hated Sci-fi), from 1989 until a short TV film in 1996 and then subsequent revival in 2004/2005. This was bridged by BBC Radio dramatizations, in between.
Aranged by the Podcast "Doctor Who Podshock" (see iTunes or http://gallifreyanembassy.org/portal/) There was an Second Life meeting in the Gallifrey, New Gallifrey and Katrina enviroments. The first two enviroments were naturally the Doctor's home planet, but Katrina is a Replica of Cardiff dock area, complete with Doctor Who Museeum, and a few other interesting buildings. A main stage had also been constructed for the SL DJ of the Night to do his thing. All in all a good night, and most people attending, either dressed up as thier favourite charactor (Mine Being Jamie complete with Kilt, and with kind donation Sporren.) Other users, used the free character clothing that was kindly made available to all attending (Amoung which were, Daleks, Cybermen and U.N.I.T soldier, plus accessories.)
It seemed a good time was had by all, and it was a chance to meet the hosts of the Podshock Podcast, if not completely in person, but at least you could chat to them.
So until the next Tech or Media related blog
Aye.
