What IS Second Life?

VR Goggles

Wikipedia says: 

Second Life is a multiplayer virtual world that allows people to create an avatar for themselves and then interact with other users and user-created content within a multi-user online environment.

​

While that IS true, Second Life is SO much more! It's a community builder, creative canvas, music maker, dream inspirer, match maker, game master, history teacher, remote workplace, career guiding, friendship fostering metaverse grid that is what ever you make it!

​

The only limitations in Second Life are the ones you put on your imagination. â€‹

Why should I join Second Life?

How do I get started?

Go to Secondlife.com and create your own account!

While you create your account, you pick your base avatar and download the Second Life Viewer. (There are other Viewers available, but it's always good to start with the Linden built viewer to get your feet wet)

 

What happens next?

  • You log into the viewer and your pixels will become a reality in the virtual reality!

  • Your avatar will rez in at one of a few locations: A welcome island or one of the random locations partnered with Linden Labs/Second Life to help bring your lovely new pixels online. These locations will help you learn how to use the UI (User interface) and move around, find things and do things.​

  • There are mentors available at Welcome Island and Hello, Avatar! HQ (Click on the hyperlink and it will launch a teleport for you inside your Second Life Viewer)

  • Feel free to also join the Hello, Avatar! Discord and we can help guide you quickly!
