@slhamlet @griffinmcelroy YES, this, if you find some cool places to go please let us know, we are trying I swear to go

Justin McElroy, co-host of Polygon's popular "Monster Factory" smartass tour of Second Life, reached out to me on Twitter in search of new locations. Their videos are good-natured, Obrien-eseque jabes through the metaverse, but it's clear that they're sort of randomly teleporting into noob areas or randomly browsed areas that don't show SL at its most interesting -- or wackiest!
So where should they go? Post SLurls at them on Twitter, or in Comments below. Key recommended components:
- Lots of regular visitors
- Seriously cool visually
- Gamer/sandbox creator friendly
Post in Comments are Tweet via the link above!
NWN contributor Brookston Holiday gives these guys the thumbs-up by the way: "I saw these guys live when they brought their podcast to Chicago. They have to be one of the funniest podcasts out there right now."

Sandbox friendly does not usually go well together with visually cool.
Sandbox friendly:
New Citizens United in Kuula: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Kuula/55/167/32
Builders Brewery: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Builders%20Brewery/128/193/22
Good people and visuals:
Bay City Dennis:

- Activity ranges here, but Bay City in general is worth exploring.
I don't think SL is about the 'cool visuals' or the 'sandboxes' so I really don't know what to recommend...
SL is about the communities.

Violet - they can feed the natives (or be fed on...)
