Oh irony, why must you be so ironic?

Thanks to those who reminded me to go outdoors on previous Saturdays.

The funny thing is, the cellphone reception in my house sucks, so I must do exactly that to use the Second Life-Vollee mobile viewer. The further into the field, the better.

I previously wrote about my initial experiences, and I wanted to share some crisp shots which I took thanks to Ilium Screen Capture. I also like MyMobile for being able to view and control what’s happening on my AT&T HTC-8925 Tilt. Alas, like I said, I can’t effectively log on from indoors… so, gotta go to nature to get more connected with technology.

Here’s what it looks like in front of my house:
