Secondlife.I use second life on a regular basis and was curious to whether anyone alse was on there.
If not then check it out... It's a virtual world where you can literally live your "Secondlife".... and it's free.
Loads of games, Virtual communitys and interests that cover anything you may be into. As well as the chance to meet and chat to people all over the world, in the comfort of a nice Virtual setting of your choice..
Don't knock it untill you've been there, it really is amazing.
I am going to create a Virtual Calne on there, a place that would make most of proud of and a place that really represents what Calne should be like.

I tried Secondlife. Seems pointless. Although, I have not looked at it since it first came out.
My computer time is largely made up of online games.
World of Warcraft, Archlord and Battlefield 1942 and 2.

I had the same problem Local Lass. Anyone know why?
|

Not sure why, I had no problems at all.
This programme should be interesting... Though bear in mind, it applies to many other online games as well.
I know what they are going to say....... " People who use Secondlife - have no life of there own " You've seen my profile..... Simply not true !.
You'll see.

I shall watch with interest and afterwards maybe I will try to get on again

I have to admit bear...... "I love it".... whatever they say it is amazing and i can see the future of taking over many areas of society.... You can shop, play, socialise, learn and make many friends all over the world (and make real money if you want too). It really is THE parralell virtual world, in every single way.
