To parcellize or not to parcellize in Second Life

Many people in Second Life subdivide the land to have the ability to view more than one streaming media source at one time on their virtual land. It can be a slideshow, a video or other source that is uploaded on your website and then streamed into Second Life. This is particularly important when you are using your site for online education, since you can have multiple training/learning modules for your students.

Here is how you parcellize, and only the land owner has the permissions to do this:

Click with the right mouse button on the ground and then left click the "edit terrain feature."

It will open a window which allows you to choose a portion of your land.

The selection tool works by pointing at the land and dragging a square big enough for what you intend to do there. Then click subdivide and the parcel is created. You do not need to parcellize a very large area, it can just be an area large enough for perhaps just a screen.
