It's a virtual world. You can build houses, buy stuff for your avatar. With that description I'm sure you won't go there ;-)

Answer to Alan: I still have a life. At least I hope so.

What got my attention is that I heard it first on tv. That marketing expert talked a bit about it. Some months later I went to a family reunion. One guy there is making web sites and he brought up Second Life in the discussion. From that point I took note of it. I heard (don't remember where) that IBM was present there to do training for their employees). Anyways I never went there so anything heard made sense.

I registered yesterday evening and tested the thing. Some hours later (yesterday and today) I wonder what's really the deal with it. After posting here I made a search on google and found out that "Pontiac"
(cars) quit the place.

Answer to Terry: Sorry if my reply gave you the impression that I wanted to start a debate. It's not the case.
