First week at Linden Lab

Started my new job at Linden Lab, makers of Second Life. I think I'm really going to enjoy working there. It's got a very unusual and compelling work culture that emphasizes personal responsibility and communication. And they have a very cool product, Second Life, a virtual world--for many people, THE virtual world--that continues to be very profitable even in these dark times.

I have been consistently impressed with the intelligence and friendliness of the people at LL. Having been around the Valley a lot, I've seen plenty of smart, motivated people in tech, but all too often they are arrogant jerks. Not so at LL...as a general rule, the people are very nice, yet smart and efficient. How refreshing!
