Day 3 Technology Class

I've learned about a site called Second Life. To me, it is kind of scary sounding, however, the teacher says that if used appropriately it can be a good place.  He even held classes there once. I'll probably check it out, but doubt that I'll join the virtual world in this form- we'll see.  I guess I'm old school and dating myself, I still prefer real face to face conversation to "read" facial and body reactions- even though I do enjoy things like instant messaging and Facebook communication as a way of keeping up with friends and family. He says that often people use it as a way to escape their own life and present themselves in a different light. Guess if you want to "try out" another life or look it may be the place for you to go.
