About Second Life


Experience the virtual world by becoming a part of Second Life. Linden Lab developed a world that is virtual on 23 June, 2003 called Second Life. You will need the Internet and a program called a Second Life viewer to gain access. There are many Second Life viewers available besides the official Second Life viewer. Check here for a list of approved and non approved third party Second Life viewers.


A Second Life viewer allows the users who are called Second Life Residents to communicate with each other with their avatars. Second Life Residents can meet each others, take part in social gatherings, participate in individual or group activities, make and trade property as well as services that are virtual. You can even travel and explore all the Second Life worlds.

Second Life Residents can build objects that are virtual with a software that is a tool of three-dimensional models. Three-dimensional “sculpties” i.e. the sculpted prims, textures for clothes or other items, animations as well as gestures are all created using a special software.

Second Life allows one to express creativity online. The buildings, clothing, landscaping are all works of art. You could design and create an architectural marvel or share your poems live on the microphone with people all over the world. The content of Second Life is created by the users. All the residents have the same opportunities but they have very diverse imaginations. It is a platform that allows users to be artistic as well as musical when it comes to their vision. It helps people to analyze, visualize, generalize and develop business plans and put them into practice in the virtual world without having to risk their real money. Second Life gives people a chance to live out their dreams.
