I think the title of my posting is too exagerating.. hehe. No no, I don't really mean to have a real second life, but to have an imaginary life in the digital world. It's in this website
secondlife.com. I know the existence of this website after I read in
BBC news about digital planet and about what teens are up to online. I made a user account in the website, tried to costumize my character, and learned about how to do things by attending the orientation. However, because it takes time to get used to this new world and I don't really have time because of my graduation thesis and all other things, I don't plan to continue accessing this second life for a while.
Another website that is quite interesting is a life chat bot called
jabberwacky. If you are bored, may be you can check it out. The conversation by the robot is quite human-like.. though you can still find strange reply.
