Wow! I agree that virtual worlds are getting stronger and more complex everyday, but we shouldn’t allow it to fully take over what is real.

In a world that embraces the concept of “Reality Television”, how does one not accept Second Life? It is completely interactive. The places you can visit have all been built by the users. You can in fact build whatever you can imagine. Schools throughout the world are embracing this technology as a means to create virtual classrooms. Practically anything you can see on your television, listen to on the radio, or view across the Internet is available through Second Life.

YouTube, FaceBook, et. al have all been accepted as valid forms of communication… Second Life provides all of that within a three-dimensional interactive environment.

Remember back when the Apple was a “toy” computer? Remember when the World Wide Web was something just for universties?

For those that think people using Second Life to avoid REAL life need to wake up. Get out from behind your passive Sunday football games and DO something. Visit Rome… which has 6,000 replicated buildings and ruins.

Second Life is limitless in many ways. For those that are homebound or unable to travel it is an immersive environment that provides the ability to meet, communicate, and discover people from all over the world.

And by the way, using “cartoons” as a derogative insults all the talented people that create movies such as Toy Story, Shrek, and all the others most people enjoy.

I wait for the day when the folks at Disney and Pixar start building in Second Life… and I will lay money down… that when that day comes… I bet you’ll be in Second Life too.

Though this bothers me on so many levels, I guess what totally astonishes me is that “she” has already moved on to another online relationship. And it seems rather quickly as well. Was there any time to evaluate the pros and cons?

To me, it seems she (and he) is looking for “love?” in all the wrong places.
