In response to Got a great Second Life tool to promote?, some of the comments are really worthwhile. In particular, I liked Amanda Ascot's comment. In it, she writes:

...I’m also concerned about possible censorship of content that might be deemed “objectionable” by someone at Linden Lab. To me the “identity and discovery tools” that Jesse mentioned (and I point out that it was the very first example mentioned) would be “objectionable”. I wonder what Linden Lab thinks about SexGen beds, XCite! products, and camping “chairs” that have your avatar in a cage or impaled on a spike? Are these allowed to be listed, even though (at least in the first two cases) these are, indeed, tools which promote social interaction in-world?

Truth be told, anyone who publishes anything also censors - either consciously or unconsciously. Some rules for what can and cannot be submitted should be made available for the reasoning that Amanda gives. That seems... fair.

I've submitted Your2ndPlace.com as well, though I question the value of the listing there should it happen. Why? Search Engines rule.
