One of the great features of this book, you can juup to whatever section you are interestesd in, issues you face and need help improving your Second Life skills. If you are a "Newb" (newbie),or desire to enhance your activities and interaction with others...this is a book to help you through step by step.

Real facts on this virutal world

Many people drop out of Second Life because they don't immediately understand "what do I DO there!?" This book is a great guide to quickly make the experience of Second Life meaningful for YOU. For example, there are thousands of useful groups for personal and professional use in Second Life. The largest is our foundation's First Opinions Panel with over 12,000 members providing feedback to Fortune 500, media and academic organizations. Like most things in "real" life, a little planning will go a long way in Second Life. Andrew B. Mallon Executive Director Social Research Foundation
