Not wanting to fall behind on the latest online trends I decided to give SecondLife a whirl. I don't get it. Of course I never played or got The Sims either. The graphics are so-so, a huge amount of SecondLife resources seem to be adult/vulgar in nature, and chatting is just random shorthand (which I can't stand).
The site is most pathetic if you don't surrender any cash so you can buy virtual crap. I understand needing $$$ to make the site work, but do you have to endow newbies with $0? Whats a one time $50 when you dole out something like $2500 a week to subscribers.
I think I'm gonna pass.
