I don't have a desire to "live" in Second Life. There is so much happening in my actual life that it seems time consuming to create and live in another one. As with many online applications (e.g. chat) people can choose to represent themselves as someone their not. This concerns me. It might be fun to play around with Second Life for an hour or two, but other than that I can't see myself using it faithfully.

Second Life
To be perfectly honest, I have a hard time grasping the second life concept. Why not live to the fullest in your real life instead of creating a second one? That said, it is valuable to have an understanding of this Web 2.0 activity so that we can better serve our patrons. Here is the avatar I created for myself: I don't have a desire to "live" in Second Life. There is so much happening in my actual life that it seems time consuming to create and live in another one. As with many online applications (e.g. chat) people can choose to represent themselves as someone their not. This concerns me.
