Linden Labs announced on 15th December that the location of the 'Linden Home' area, a new continent called Nascera, was opened to residents so that you could go and check it out for yourselves. For more information about how Nascera was created, look at Linden Home Beta is now open.
They emphasised that the continent is a Beta, and that some things will change and hopefully improve as a result of feedback about the houses and the experience itself.

Here are pictures and SLURLs of a few of the regions (sims) you can teleport to..
Fern (to see the fantasy themed houses)
Batry Park (to see meadowbrook, the california modern area)
What do you think of these houses Ed? I would sooner have a blank plot myself. Batry Park reminds me of Pete Seeger's; "houses made out of ticky-tacky". BJ
ReplyDeleteThe scheme is aimed at newbies who might not feel confident about the purchase of land and houses. The houses themselves are bland boxy starter homes and appear quite high density. I believe this is an experiment to create newbie communities and to encourage them with a better experience through that critical initial phase of their second lives. Thanks for your comment Boye :-))
