Re: Second Life
It sounds like it could get very expensive.

Re: Second Life
There used to be the option were you could buy a virtual bikini/swimming shorts in the Accy Web chatroom jacuzzi, not many people bothered though.
Tinks did use her virtual dosh to but some shatter proof glasses though, which came in handy, and saved people from getting virtual cuts.

PMSL I forgot that.
I hope he didn't spend too many virtual dollars on it, as it was the wrong size.
Infact it looked more like it was meant for a lady, or to cut cheese.

Re: Second Life
Just to revive this read, I have taken up Second Life again today and it is really quite fun.
I have spent no money and yet acquired a nice suit, (and a ladies ball gown which I gave to my friend) along with a nice pair of earrings for her.
Had a nice dance in a lovely ballroom, which included lots of music too! Quite fun.

Re: Second Life
Tonight I was just catching up with the Sunday Times magazine from last week, and it had an indepth article about SL.
People are making money from virtual businesses that are trading in Second Life. Totally weird.
I might join up, and start and edit a fashion magazine.
'The Rindy Wears Prada.'
If I don't come back, it's been your pleasure knowing me in this reality.
Tat-a.

Re: Second Life
People sell a lot of fashion which they have designed in photoshop and things.
There is a woman from China (I think) who has made over 1million $ buying and selling property on Second Life!

Yeah I read that. Virtual estate agents, how boring must they be.
I don't think the long term investment of a SL property will be that great though.

Re: Second Life
This is a line from a verse kindly sent by Lancsyorksyankee (Brian) called 'you are the keeper', quote- "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in awhile, you could miss it." so stop worrying about 'virtual' life and enjoy reality.

...he said, on a virtual forum, as his words disappeared into the Ether for all eternity.
