First, second or third life ?

Filed in archive Social Web on February 7, 2007

First of all, so everyone knows, I am *not* a cat. Therefore I have only one life. And that one life has to be divided into several bits, keeping me very, very busy. Secondlife is a social network I just don't get. Before ever going there I always wondered what could be so special about a social network that you want to go in there and spend hours and hours building a 'life' that is virtual when you already have a life ?? And apparently, I'm not the only one : Getafirstlife is here.



I own an account to Secondlife but I totally missed it. My first life consists of doing business, having a family, being on the phone all the time, walking around with chat and surf gadgets and being online a lot. I know it's not much, but at least it's actual, not virtual. And it's mine.
