A couple of people have been telling me I should check out second life. I have no idea what it is and I haven't even been to the website yet. Before I waste my time checking it out, I wondered if anyone had heard of it, etc.

I tried it and thought it was utterly retarded. Pretty much you just make an avatar and fly around a low-res virtual world. Trust me, knowing you the little that I do, it is not something you would enjoy.
Don't bother. It's terrible, and they ban entire groups of people just for making it rain penises.
MTV had a true life about that show. Some girl was addicted to it or something..
It looks beyond lame.
I gave it a shot a while back, and it's just not worthwhile. As Rick already said, it's low res and really not worth bothering with unless you feel like spending money on non-existent virtual junk. Personally, I think it's retarded, and frankly, it probably has something to do with my standing when it comes to buying games. I rarely buy them (on PC at least), and buying individual parts and clothing to deck out my avatar is pretty high upon the "what the fuck" scale.
I say pass, and get into something a little more worthwhile. I personally haven't gotten into it, but WoW is still a relatively decent mainstay.
Second Life is suppose to be a 3D shared world that can completely be shaped by its users, and it has its own currency that can be exchanged for real money. Some people even make a profit from it. It's not a structured MMO game like WoW.
I tried Second Life briefly, and to be honest couldn't stand it after a half hour or so.
A few people make their living on their. A friend of mine pulled in around $200 extra a month selling furniture he made on there before unloading his business for a few thousand.
Imagine a 3D version of Zoints and there you have it.
Yeah, Second Life was fun for me for about a month and then I uninstalled the program. Don't even bother. (Unless you like playing with Barbies and Dollhouses. Then it's perfect for you!)

This game killed my wife.
It's not a "game" sole, it's a world...Quote:

Game, world, whatever. It's terrible.
..note that a comparison of anything to Furcadia is a most unfavorable one...
