Onder Skall (known in real life as Caleb Booker) is the founder of the Second Life Games website. Onder was a regular contributor to the Second Life Herald as well as New World Notes, before shifting to business in virtual worlds when he became a full-time news editor at Metaversed.com. More recently, he has been working as COO of Clever Zebra, a company focused on running events in virtual worlds.
Golf has come to Second Life, thanks to the ministrations of talented scripter Kanker Greenacre, and the nice new golf club opened by a pair of residents in the Hollywood sim. The Holly Kai Golf Club is run by SL residents MarkTwain White and Nber Medici, and plans monthly tournaments, club championships, and a Second Life Open that any resident can enter.
