I tried Second Life. I worked at trying for some time -- but there were some things I couldn't understand enough to really be an active citizen. I suppose I could have dug in my heels and studied all the things I didn't know - I'm probably somewhere around average as far as computers go - but it involved areas of computer use that don't really interest me in any other situation. Those I would ask for help to understand how some things work in SL are far away and not always too patient with the likes of me. It was better for me to leave it alone.

I'd say, Jay, that how one understands how SL works and enjoys the acts of creation and building in SL from the technical side will do just fine. Those like me, who aren't really into the technical side of things computer may not find it satisfying to learn the nuts and bolts side of SL and really get into it. We go back to scripting The Sims and leave it alone...
