The preceding blog, called "Living in the Metaverse: gonzo fenomenology of virtual worlds", seems to be run by an avatar named Dandellion. On this blog there is a link to the following blog which is oriented towards OpenSim:

Thanks for the link :)
Yup, Living in the Metaverse is run by dandellion Kimban, and it focuses on the phenomenology, psychology and society of virtual worlds from the first person view.

Daltonic Gin is run by Dalien Talbot, a developer, coder and a geek in the best possible meaning of the word. Yes, Dalien can tell you a lot of great things about OpenSim and maybe even let you play on his own grid.

Dandellion, thanks for the comment. The first on this blog! I only noticed it today, after adding a "recent comments" feed to the blog.

Since that date, I've started my own OpenSim blog, at:
