Getting started in Second Life

I’ve been getting questions lately from folks I know who are curious about SL. You can visit the SL website for more complete info, and I will be posting more about it in the future. For now, I’d like to address some of the most frequent questions I get about it.

How do you get started? The first step is to go to the SL website and download the SL viewer. You will want to check out the page about the SL system requirements, to make sure your computer is up to running SL. I got my computer before I even knew about SL, so I didn’t get a “gaming system” with all the bells and whistles. It runs fine on my computer, although I did have to upgrade my graphics card, as SL is a very graphics intensive program.
