I've been asked by my boss to complie a breif report into SecondLife. The reason why is that my boss has been instructed to pursue a claim arising from a breach of contract arsing out of some sort of land deal in Secondlife? Only problem is no-one at our frim has any idea what secondlife is?  I know there is wiki out there etc and I've read all that but some simple real life views and exprince from users would be helpful as my boss is pretty shit with the whole internet thing. thanks |

I think the general idea is you make an 'Avatar' to represent you and then you go around and talk to other people in a crazy computer world. Each to their own, I suppose. |

It's about 0.001% as popular as World of Warcraft yet gets 1000 times the media exposure, crazy.
Both are shite but at least in WoW you get to kill folk.

shit and geeky was my concluesion as well. However it would seem their is some serious money to be made in this fake world the breach of contract money wise totals about 100k but what its all about is still abit of a mystry. somehow I can see myself spending hours talking to complete freaks who are scared of sunlight!!!!!!
