      Second Life - online virtual world

      Hey everyone,

      Anyone here signed up to www.SecondLife.com ?

      I'm finding it perfect for LD simulation. You can fly and do reality checks.

      If you are a member, I would love to meet up with you and test out a few things.

      And yes, that game is like a virtual lucid dream, with the music, the strange palces and characters talking to you, its pretty cool.

      Heh, I found SL through DV, and I've been there almost four years. It definitely has a lot in common with LDs. Anyone can PM me if you'd like to meet up. Xavier, you sound familiar and might already be on my friends list...
      If you have a sense of caring for others, you will manifest a kind of inner strength in spite of your own difficulties and problems. With this strength, your own problems will seem less significant and bothersome to you. By going beyond your own problems and taking care of others, you gain inner strength, self-confidence, courage, and a greater sense of calm.Dalai Lama

      Argh! I don't know how to register. I enter my first name and second name, but I press enter and it returns to the homepage - What's that all about?

      Jdeadevil,

      From what I remember about signing up, you can choose whatever first name you want but have to select from a list of last names. Try that.

      Interesting how everyone got talking about this recently.
      I'm thinking of trying to build up a business in one of these virtual worlds. Probably SL, because you can create items, pets, etc. Right up my alley.
      And I can do it with my polyphasic sleep - gives me time at night.

      But another I'm probably going to try is Entropia Universe (or Project Entropia)
      It has a sci-fi feel, and you can go on missions to kill aliens.
      It's the primary competitor to SL, looks prettier, nice story to it, but has negatives too (e.g. I don't think it has a scripting system with prims, etc)

      It also has a RCE (real currency economy, I think?) so money there is money in the real world (with an exchange rate)

      I've done some research, so if anyone wants to know more about the other options out there, and their pros/cons, say something. E.g. metaplace, twinity

      And for those old-timers in SL or Entropia, I'd really, really appreciate some friendship or even mentoring in them. I'm a complete noob, in practice.
