Does anyone else use it? If so, do you have experience making locations/objects/etc?

I'm trying to figure out if it would be worth it to create a group/meeting location there.

What is Second Life? A game? Software?

You've piqued my interest, Curu.

Second Life? Half-Life 2? Anyone see where I'm going with this?

And to me, it sounds more like a form of the Witness Protection Program.

:p

Second Life is an online artificial reality.

If you want to add me, my character's name is Fae Schuyler. I don't play much at all, though, just get on every now and then to play with a friend.

It looks like The Sims... in which case... I'll avoid it like the plague-- highly addictive and a mockery of Real-life, IMO. (I'm just a little bitter because I played the sims for a while before I realized it was silly to play out my life when I could step away from my box and LIVE!)

Jade: it is nothing like the Sims. All it is, really, is an interactive world in which people live their "Second Life." It has an economy as well as jobs, all run by players, and is mostly run by the players. You can go on there and create your own clothing for free, then go around exploring the world and talking with other people. It's pretty fun, actually, to see all that other people create.

Ah, I've heard of that game, but my internet/computer/time sucks.

It's not a game.

Okay then, other than defining it as an "online artificial reality", what would you call it, Curu?
