What is Second Life?  Could it be used for anything useful?  How could businesses use it?  How could education use it? Would you use it?  Why or why not?  Again, make me think you know what you are talking about and make it more than a sentence or two.  


Second Life is an online community.

Businesses could use this for advertisement and free downloads.

Education could use this to post ads for Universities and create possible “classes” that the avatars can attend. They could be free general classes or tutorials or create small paid classes that you would pay through the dollars you can earn on this game.

I signed on and created a person. Not sure I would use this as I’ve been “walking” around for a while now and there is no easy explanation of what I am doing. I'm an instant gratification person and this site is not it. I had a guy walk by and say something in another language to me and they he through up his hands when I didn't answer.

I'm not familiar with this site as of yet. There is so much exploration. I think sites like this are a little un-nerving for me as they are interactive with strangers. I’m going to explore and read up on this site a bit more.
