anyone heard of the social networking site second life?

Fri, 12 Mar 2010 07:01:42 +0000

well if you haven’t… it’s basically a site where people can make a character to live in the little fantasy internet world….here’s a description…

Second Life (abbreviated as SL) is a virtual world developed by Linden Lab that launched on June 23, 2003 and is accessible via the Internet. A free client program called the Second Life Viewer enables its users, called Residents, to interact with each other through avatars. Residents can explore, meet other residents, socialize, participate in individual and group activities, and create and trade virtual property and services with one another, or travel throughout the world, which residents refer to as the grid. Second Life caters for users aged over eighteen, while its sister site Teen Second Life is restricted to users aged between thirteen and eighteen.

Second Life has an internal currency, the Linden dollar (L$). (i personally thought this was funny) L$ can be used to trade goods, land and services with other users. Virtual goods include buildings, vehicles, devices of all kinds, animations, clothing, skin, hair, jewelry, flora and fauna, and works of art. Land in Second Life is a valuable and scarce commodity and can be bought, sold or rented. Users may also offer items or services to other users in exchange for L$; services include “camping”, working in stores, business management, entertainment (which prominently includes adult entertainment), custom content creation, and other personal services. L$ is usually purchased from other users with real-world currency; Linden Lab and others[1] offer a brokerage service for these transactions. The most popular usage for the exchange of L$ for US$ is in order to pay Second Life’s subscription fees. In spite of attracting large volumes of press coverage, only a very small percentage of Residents derive a net income from the economy.

and apparently you have to pay a monthly fee for owning land…

oooh my gosh!
is this what people’s laziness in this world is resorting to??
people could go out there in the REAL world and get what they want done in life done and strive for their goals. but no.. that seems to be too much work. so they ditch that idea and seek satisfaction from this site? they are too lazy to go out and make a change in their own life… so they sit at home and waste their real life building this fake little fantasy life that will probably never come true because they are to busy creating it…. and what have you accomplished by creating a fantastic life on second life? nothing. absolutly nothing this just makes me sick

please give your comments and/or opinions on this site. or comment on my opinion.
seriously.. i am open to anything… even inform me about this site if you feel like it, tell me off if need be, i am just curious as to what people think about this topic…
