My Experiences in Second Life #2

Hello to all Second Lifers'. This is my second blog. If you didn't catch my first blog, my name is Mikemmax Benford. If you want some more info about this blog please read my first blog, ty. In the short period of time that I've been playing, I have made a ring, wishing well, a car, lamp shade, a blue donation box, and have made some graphics, and put them up for sale on my land. Also I have built 2 houses, and owned 2 512 sq.m. pieces of land.

Most of these items I have made were made by just playing around with the building tools. I started messing with the settings to see what settings do what. After a while, I got tried of doing that so, I got on Google, and started learning about building, but after I started searching, I realized that there is really a great deal of information to building an item. I also found information for a lot of other things that are in second life.

Second Life seems to be a virtual world, which you could pretty much do anything. There are things you can't do in Second Life as well. Second Life is a great game, in my opinion, due to a number of factors. Some of examples of these are, constantly changing world in real time, being able to build anything, a variety of jobs, and lots to learn.

You can fly, build, sell, play games, have a job and make real money. There is a stock market, casinos, free money give-aways, Concerts, Malls, Parks, Famous Landmarks (or cities), and much more. I have been to New York and saw the Twin Towers, I been to Paris and Saw the Effel Tower. There sure is a real big number of place and things to do and discover, and so little time.

I figure it is going to take about a year to learn only some of the things, that I can discover/ or do in Second Life. The next thing I want to get into this Year 2007 is scripting, and putting scripts in items. There are array of scripts out there that you can get that are already made, but I figure that, I should learn it anyway.

I think that knowing the LSL code is really handy, so then you know, how a object does what it does. It would be really useful, if you know the code, because there are jobs in Second Life for people that know how to make a few scripts, put those scripts in one script. By integration. I would like to get there to that point, but I am just learning.

My Experiences in Second Life

Hello to all Second Lifers'. This is my first blog. I will try to make this blog informative, but yet simple. I'm going to be talking about my experiences in Second Life.

First off, my name in Second Life is Mikemmax Benford. I signed up as a resident of Second Life in May 2006, but I wasn't able to use this game (If you would like to call it that):), until in December 2006. Due to lack of computer requirements. So, in reality, I've only been playing for almost a month. I decided to make a blog to go over my experiences, since I started playing. If I don't make this I might forget all the stuff I saw, and have done in Second Life. lol

To my knowledge, Second Life is a enormously vast world with lots and lots to discover and learn. Since playing, I have found that I have been dancing a lot or sitting to make Lindens (Money). People that sign up have made some wierd and interesting items from scratch. These items range randomly from invisible items that your AV (avatar) can wear, to houses (or businesses) that are 768 meters high. Some of these items are really amazing.

Residents of Second Life build some very exciting and fun places. I been to some of these places in Second Life that will make you ask yourself, how did they do that? Some things, this great game can be is a money maker, teaching tool, or just some fun to do.
