Tonight Live has Virtual Goods, Kyle Beltran & Saving Trees!

This Sunday 28th February 6pm slt on Tonight Live with Paisley Beebe

What are virtual Goods? and why are Virtual Goods the fastest growing consumer items? Max Burns/Gatsby Crumb from Pixels and Policy blog will be taking us through these questions. Where did they come from? and where are they going, and who is making the most of this phenomenon. Now most people know by now, Im a non Gamer and I can’t stand Facebook Games, or Mafia Wars ect..I’ve never tried them. Why? cause I don’t like real life games either! I wan’t to cheat and get to the end of them. And Im a really sore loser. But clearly IM in the minority! All the tiny micro payments that people spend to send me flowers, or frogs or hearts on Face book…(wasted on me clearly) add up to billions of dollars for the creators and owners of these games. I’m very interested in the phycology behind these games and the gift giving, even if I don’t have any interest in sending any.

Kyle Beltran doesn’t just play the piana..he is all things to all audience members. Kyle Beltran is a very versatile musician. He can play Stride one tune then blues, then swing then modern jazz. The guy can swing, he can croon and he can write a damn silly ditty! To find out more behind this entertaining Jazz musician make sure to tune in this Week!

I’m all for saving our trees…in fact I’m often standing in front of trees and bushes around my house trying to save them from being chopped to bits by my chainsaw weilding husband! who’s idea of “pruning” is to leave a tiny stump behind…proclaiming that the leaves were getting in the Gutters! and never mind it will Grow! Well thats its that sort of attitude that has caused our environment a great deal of pain in the last few hundred years. The Treeline Project started here in Australia on the Sunshine coast, educates and informs and celebrates the beauty of our native trees. They have an extensive exhibit in Second Life and this week I talk to Juanita Deharo about what they are doing in Second Life and in Real Life.
