    Everything you've ever wanted to know about SL and more!by DBellin716

    November 15, 2009: Compared to SL For Dummies, this book gets down to the technicalities. It's very helpful, especially if you're already "Inworld" and familiar with the basics. It is, however, the absolute authority on what Second Life is and how it works. A good resource as you live,work, and play in this interesting virtual world.
