There was bump, but not much (just over 1000 more than average (±11,000/day). </p>

<p>However, what is desperately sad is that not a single new user has been able to pass through the portals in Learning Island since last Friday. Something with the portals is broken and anyone going through one immediately crashes. So the initial experience is a crash followed by a relog!</p>
<p>We first reported this on Friday, as of Sunday it is still happening. LL say they are looking into it.. but talk about missing the chance of a life time!</p>Persephone Emerald commented on 'Dr. Phil Features Second Life in Show on Game Addiction'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341bf74053ef01bb0853df1d970d2015-07-17T00:10:41Z2015-07-17T00:10:41ZPersephone EmeraldSo you haven't seen the show, but decided to review it anyway?

Then I can play the game 'online shopping'. After that I'll play the game 'email my friends interesting information'. Then maybe play a few minutes of the game 'Skype' with a couple of family members.</p>
<p>After a game of 'online business meeting', I think I'll go for a game of 'learn new things for my career on the internet'. That game can be very interesting I've found.</p>
<p>At the end of the day, I'll play the game 'Facebook' and maybe even look at the feed from the game 'Twitter' and the other game I love, 'Plurk'. Following that up with the game 'uploading my artwork to Tumblr and 500 pixels'. Great games in and of themselves.</p>
<p>Everything is a game, right? If it's on the internet that is.....</p>
