treading the purple snow.

I changed white-gloves.net host due to problems with previous one. Also used this as excuse for upgrading wordpress after few years *cough* (you know, i have a life). Sorry if you encountered 404s and internal server errors during the process. I checked everything and all white-gloves.net and Techniverse sites seem to be ok but if you’ll notice any issues - scream (i mean, e-mail me. or leave a comment).

I recently had some problems with Techniverse Planet’s script (well, it stopped working) and decided to use another one instead. I also used this cute theme that BMG Sweden and Bjork are using.

Enjoy… and sorry for day with blank page ;)

I recently finished my new project, Techniverse - inspirational social network, blog aggregator and wiki for all things tech.

Feel free to join and share your thoughts on technology ;).

Techniverse Social Network is place to share ideas, find inspiration and discuss about technology, science, education, digital art and business.

Science and Art Collective is my Second Life science/tech/art events group. It existed for some time already but - as many other SL projects - it didn’t had a website. I recently fixed this ;).

…now you’re able to see my photography in a little more original way ;). Photography in virtual gallery, hanging on virtual walls, oh my ;). Exhibited photos are available for purchase - both virtual versions for your Second Life land and ‘real life’ prints.

You don’t know Second Life? Second Life is virtual world, game without rules ;) where you can create your own content. Second Life, just like real life is full of different kinds of content - sometimes something more intellectual, sometimes something more entertaining, sometimes both at the same time… Find more about Second Life on it’s official website.

You don’t need to check my exhibition in sl to buy rl prints - you can just visit online prints store.

I added link to my prints store and events section to white-gloves.net main page. Now you can always know if I have any active rl or web exhibitions ;).
