Second Life First Impressions

Second life is an interesting concept.  You can meet and interact with people through the use of an avatar.  I can see how this may be fun for some; but personally this is not quite my cup of tea.  I have played web based games before but they are usually action oriented, not socially oriented.  This game seems to be face book on steroids.  I do like the flying around aspect though that is fun.  My laptop does not have the power to run it properly though, it is very choppy while playing.  I did go to a concert the other night.  At first I thought it was just a recording; then i realized it was live, when the musician said hi to me by name.  That was kind of interesting, would have never thought to attend a concert that way.
