I've never heard about it.

I downloaded it and got password and ID. For some reason it would never let me in. How can I get in.Did you like the game? They have a free version and that was the one I was trying to play.

Did you download and play it? Like I said I registered and downloaded the game but it would never allow me to play.So I would really like to know if you did and what did you think of it?

What error were you getting? If you are under 18 you need to provide proof of ID through a mobile number, an adults credit or debit card, or mobile number. If you're over 18 and still can't get in after just doing the basic signup, then make sure you're using the right first name and surname - they're case sensitive.

You need a high speed connection to play - it's very bandwidth intensive.

I have never tried this game, but they say that people are making money on virtual real estate and that there is a plan for google to create a virtual google earth of the game?

Could one make a business in the game and make money?

I have heard of some people making very large amounts of money in this game. Mainly from VRE (virtual real estate) but also make products for in game characters and selling them.

Not my cup of tea, but if it works do it.

To make decent money in second life you either need to spend real money to get a premium account and buy a lot of land then get lucky when selling the land on, OR be really really good at graphics or scripting to make stuff for other people.

If you have some talent, then you could make good money selling clothes, avatars, makeovers, etc, but you'd face some stuff competition trying to do that.
