Life, but not as we know it

Okay, so I decided to see what all the fuss was about with Second Life, the online "world" that Miss K and others, have been raving about for ages.

My first thought was "ooh... you can dress up in all kinds of outfits and stuff, and spend hours on your makeup! This is very tranny!"

After that it seemed to lose it's appeal. It wasn't obvious what you're supposed to do. A couple of trips to some busy clubs and I was beginning to wonder if it wasn't just a glorified chatroom.

Then I started to play with the editing tools, and then I realised that everything is editable. Almost everything you see, hear, and touch in the game has been created by another Second-lifer. It's incredibly rich and complex.

Although it is great fun for trannies (and regular girls and boys) who want to lose themselves in an alternate personality, I've actually had the most fun so far designing my home, here's it is...

My first home in Second Life

It has a very powerful 3D editing tool, with which I've only just begun to scratch the surface of what's possible.

Suffice it to say, even if you've played a Massively Multiplayer game like Everquest or World of Warcraft you wont' "get" Second Life until you've tried it. Why not try out their free trial? If you do, give "Peony Candour" a shout, I'll come and say hi! :)
