need answers for Kitely-related questions?

9 comments

i’ve been a big cheerleader for Kitely since they started and plan on using them for my personal island home and we may be checking them out as a optional channel for Enclave Harbour

Kitely is nice for a few reasons in my opinion – first they are cloud-based which is an efficient and modern way to deploy many things. you can even feel a little environmental by using them (it is an environmental choice, yet the environmental impact of cloud services won’t be realised until much greater global adoption – kind of like turning off a light at home, the one light decreases your use of electricity but not of the electricity generated for the grid, when 1,000 people turn off a light for an extended time, then the power generation ramps down . . .)

secondly, Kitely shares their code advancements with OpenSim development – that is very awesome in my book =)

Kitely is growing and improving their offering in significant ways. their latest megaregion and multi-region options are fantastic for many uses – from academic where a school district or university system could have multi-region campus with each school or department having their own region yet still be one large campus to role playing where a 16 sim world could lend itself to insane development and theming

having more offerings complicates matters to an extent. not so much in its use – their interface and work flow from a user perspective is phenomenally well thought out and implemented – but in determining what may be the best for you

i was recently introduced to their discussion forum (which i had no idea existed because i live under a prim in either Enclave Harbour or Sim-on-a-Stick – always head down ya know, nose to the grindstone, and all that baloney!) =p

if you have Kitely questions on anything grid-related (even on where to buy content) i encourage you to check out their forum – Kitely should be here for the long haul and i anticipate steady and solid growth for them

  1. Thank you Ener,

    Kitetalk is a new community initiated and managed forum. It is growing fast and it has become one of my regular destinations for interacting with the Kitely community.

  4. If they ever enable hyper-grid, I may build a river landing sim there, mostly as a gateway, point of interest, who knows what else. My sim there would will be a gate to my Araxie River sims. I’m too big of a server nerd to give up that server mojo for my main stuff. Until hyper-grid though, I’ll be meh on Kitely.

  5. I do approve of the cloud though, huge fan of Linode.

  6. @Araxie Longoar “Until hyper-grid…”

    Suggested reading is a post about the upcoming HG 2.0 by the HG inventor herself.

    Putting HG on a grid that is anymore than non critical social fun would be less than prudent.

  7. Ok Ener, with this latest news I’ve finally done it. I signed up and visited Kitely this week. I explored some cool places and I’ve decided to create a place of my own there once I’ve developed something worthy – at this point my ideas are hazy and too many.

  8. Welcome to Kitely Kimika :-)

    One of the nice things abut Kitely is that it makes it very affordable to have a world for each of your ideas. If you prefer keeping your builds private while they are still taking shape then just use the web-based control panel to set those worlds’ access to allow only you to enter them.

  9. Kimika!!! =)

    i am the same way – a zillion ideas and not enough time to explore them! that’s why i love sim-on-a-stick and use it so much. like this past weekend, i “thought” i had a great idea fro an educational campus and spent about three hours building it (on a laptop while watching TV) but . . . it turned out blah and i deleted it! but, i’ll try again

    like you, i want something worthwhile before i make it public – i figure that as much baloney as i talk on the blog, anything i create that others can see better look pretty interesting! (i’m making a secert cave in one of my island home’s extinct volcano and also making an abandoned WWII bunker . . .) =)
