Responding to my challenge to profile great undiscovered personalities of Second Life, Misa Delight has an informative Q&A with Zayn Till, founder of Raglan Shire, a large SL community who's inhabitants are very small. Tinies, in fact, those damn adorable avatars roughly the size of your hand. For a time, as it turns out, Till had what he calls a "biggie human Ken doll avatar", but that was when he was an SL real estate baron, "it was a job and I wanted more silliness." Enter Till into Raglan Shire as tiny fluffy bunny. Read the rest of the interview here.
There's still many great, under-appreciated personalities to write about: here's the full list. When you've written a profile, post the URL there!
Zayn rox.

The Raglan Community does indeed rock, and Zayn is a wonderful ambassador and organiser for it. I'm so very glad he, and the community are getting much deserved recognition.

Yesh! I heart Zayn and the tinies of Raglan!
Raglan is a fantastic, welcoming community filled with warm folks left and right. Pass the waffles.

SL would be a far poorer place without tinies and people like Zayn!

Actually, I find Zayn to be incredibly myopic. All tinies are equal, but some are more equal than others appears to be his motto. He has a 'clique' that can do no wrong -- even when that clique makes racist and classist remarks.
He may have created a nice place, but he's let it be taken over by some really cretinous, ignorant people.
Raglan Shire is fading. Right now, I'm lobbying LL to revoke their PG rating based on screenshots and notices.
