Yesterday in Second Life, Tuesday 11 December, 2007

Yesterday in Second Life there was:

• 8,715 new signups bringing the total to 11,363,021 signups.
• A peak concurrency of 44,591 at 4:05PM. Median concurrency for the day was 31,748.
• The Grid Stability Index for the day was 14.38 (lower is better).
• Four hours of downtime were scheduled, which turned into more like eight hours.
• Nicholaz Beresford thinks he has found and fixed the bug that causes attachments to go where the sun doesn't shine (and we don't mean hobbit holes). New editions of his viewer have been released.
• Cory Ondrejka, Linden Lab's CTO, was apparently fired from Linden Lab today, due to creative differences. Yes, that term is an overused catch-all, but in this case it's probably correct.

Below is the day's concurrency graphed for yesterday (left), and the corresponding day from the previous week (right)
