The practice of illegally copying or cloning objects in Second Life, as least for me, is a very big issue that should be taken seriously but there are merchants and creators specially in SLExchange who does not believe or do they care about this issue. In one thread, a creator and a merchant posted her […]

Remember my post titled Search Outside Second Life where you can use some query strings to perform in-world searches using Second Life’s newest search tool?
Today I added a form that will let you easily search Second Life. You will see the form at the sidebar and the result page will open a new window. The form is powered by Second Life’s Official Search Interface which means you can search for stuff in-world just like with the search query string without logging in.
It is so easy to use, just type the keywords you want to search then select one of the sub options and then hit the Search Second Life button. A new page will open showing the results of your search.
I hope that many will find the search form useful. Goodluck and happy searching!

When I first signed up with Second Life, it was clearly stated that it is for people 18 years of age and above. Those who are below 18 years of age are not allowed in Second Life but that doesn’t mean they can’t enjoy Second Life, that is why Teen Second Life was created.
Reading Second Life’s blog, they posted about the release of a new candidate viewer (1.18.6 RC0) and the implementation of age verification in it.
I really don’t get the logic of it. If Second Life (the main grid) is for adults only then why add an in-world age verification system. Age verification should be done, initially, at sign-up and not after signing up.
Thus this mean that Linden Labs admits the presence of minors in the main grid and they have failed to limit access to adults only?
I’m not saying that an in-world age verification system is a bad thing. In fact, it’s a good thing because there are indeed minors in the main grid and I’ve met some of them who admitted to me that they are minors but that should be the job of Linden Labs and not the estate or land owners since the sign-up process is still controlled and conducted by Linden Labs.
Implementing an in-world age verification system can also mean that minors are in fact, if not already, welcome in the main grid. Now what’s the purpose of having a Teen Second Life?
Instead of features like this why don’t they focus on important things like viewer stability and scalability. Linden Labs is wasting manpower and resources for something that should have been part of the sign up process for the main grid of Second Life.
Again, it is assumed that everyone in the main grid are adults and if there’s going to be an age verification system it should be placed at the sign up process and not after you signed up and besides, they admitted that it’s not full proof so why waste people’s time with this thing.

Yes, you can make real money in Second Life. How? By earning Linden Dollars in-world. For those unfamiliar to Second Life, Linden Dollars, the in-world currency of Second Life, can be exchanged to US Dollars and vice versa and if you earn enough Linden Dollars in-world you can exchange it to US Dollars and withdraw it through PayPal or have it delivered to you in a check.
How do you earn Linden Dollars? Well, you can start by reading my post, Easy Ways to Earn Linden Dollars in Second Life. It does not list all the ways of earning Linden Dollars but it does list the easy ones.
Now, once you have more than enough Linden Dollars you can venture to other ways of earning them like starting a business, investing in stock exchanges, providing and offering specialized services, etc. These will earn you more Linden Dollars but they’re not that easy to do and a certain amount of risk is involve in them. An example are investing in Stock Exchanges and depositing in Virtual Banks because these businesses can, at anytime, close shop and run away with your hard earn Linden Dollars.
Anyway, you can absolutely make money in Second Life. If you wish to learn more ways then I suggest that you join the many business groups in Second Life. Most of these groups are free to join and once you are in, don’t be afraid to ask questions. Many of them are more than willing to help you.
You can also check out Second Life Linden Dollars Guide, a 95 page eBook on making money in Second Life.
