My Second Life Avatar
I finally signed up for Second Life. I wanted to check out the Library 2.0 in the game. It was really amazing!
I was part of the beta testing for Second Life when the game first came out - after the beta was over I didn’t play anymore - I had my own property and had a bunch of money - but I gave it all away 
Anyway, I joined up today and was a bit annoyed that to verify my account I had to either give them my PayPal info, CC info, or accept a text message - I don’t pay the extra for text messaging on my cell phone package - so I had to accept the charge - but I guess it’s less than most only games.
It took me a little while to find my inventory of clothing - so I’m still in the outfit they started me in - I’ll work on it.
There is an orientation on Weds the 31st, but I may not be able to attend because it’s right at the time I’ll be on my comute home Hopefully they offer another one soon.
[update]I forgot to tell you - my name in Second Life is Talia Nicholas[/update]

Paul owns Second Life, too, and while his old computer couldn’t play it or whatever, I bet his new one can. I gave him your character name, but I don’t know his, so maybe you’ll have a friend out there… assuming it’s an online thing. I know nothing about the game. Though Paul has tried to explain it to me, heh.
