Today we launched an island in Second Life for the Swedish newspaper Sydsvenskan. Since the Swedish Embassy announced their plans the Swedish buzz has increased considerably.

Okay, I’m (somewhat) back. I’ll leave out the details of what happened for now, as this is a blog about my work, not my life.
