I was intrigued by this story Second Life Faces Threat To Virtual Economy, particularly since I had never heard of Second Life. I know that Gill is a Warcrafter, just wondered if there are any Secondlifers around here? ?
Not sure I see the attraction, one life sometimes seems to much … 🙂

I told you all about secondlife *ages* ago. It’s fairly pointless.
Nooo! I must look! It might suck me in and take away another year of my life! *Peeps out from between fingers*
I meant to say “mustn’t” then. Freudian slip or what? 😉
Doesn’t run on a mac, so no interest from me!
I heard of it ages ago too, even before Jax told us about it! I don’t see the attraction either …
I signed up for this the other day, only been on it once though. I couldn’t really see what I was supposed to do though. I had fun making a second me, that was the best bit!
oh man… just what i need, a more threatening animal crossing!
I don’t think it is threatening, just puzzling. BTW I signed up, but my firewalls won’t let me play.
It clearly isn’t pointless to the people who use it or the companies that are now using it. Reuters actually have a secondlife news bureau!!
Lol! That’s crazy 🙂 I love the internets.
I think I would like to open a fish and chip shop there. Assuming the stocks of virtual fish aren’t depleted I think it would be a winner.
I wonder if you are still allowed to wrap fish and chips in newspaper in Second Life?
It’d have to be the Gaurdian online or something, which I don’t suppose is nearly as good for wrapping with 😉
(Obviously that was a deliberate typo in Graudina … *obviously* …. )
Don’t worry no-one else can spell Grandiau.
I think you have uncovered the flaw in my plan. My customers will all read online newspapers, Can you wrap something in a day old online newspaper? Would I have to get my stock from archive.org?
Maybe a sushi restaurant would be a better bet.
No, a kebab shop!
Now there’s a story for Reuters, “Second Life Salmonella Slaughter” 👿
Need support for your home ed journey? Looking for tutoring for your young person? Have an idea for a collaboration? I’d love to hear from you!
After 20+ years of home educating my four children (two now adults), I’ve gathered a wealth of experience that I’m passionate about sharing. Beyond blogging and guest writing, I offer several services designed to support families on their home education journey.
I’ve put together a collection of resources that I’ve genuinely found useful over the years—things that have actually made a difference in our home education. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to freshen things up, there’s something here to help. These are the tools, guides, and materials I’d recommend to a friend, because they work.
