Second Life; Logging in…
After a vary confusing hour setting up my avatar to be the best possible resemblance of myself I am able ready to teleport, did I mention you can fly in this world? I am able teleport to the main island with ease and the adventure begins… now if only I could figure out how to teleport to “capital hill” all would be well. After a couple of failed attempts I search “white house” in the search bar in the table titled “places” the search comes back with a definite possibility for my voyage, upon arrival after teleportation I learn that it will cost me L$50 to enter, a donation claims the sign at the door. A logical idea, but unfortunately this means I need to learn how to make money in this game before I can hear any sort of political speech. This certainly seems like a lot of work just to hear a politician speak, perhaps I am missing the point, perhaps I should stick to Facebook or learn Twitter for that matter. At least there I understand what is going on. I attempt once more the search function, this time under "groups", perhaps this will lead me in the correct direction. As my search returns in a positive means, I join as many free political discussion groups as possible, all the while noticing that this game is very American based. My hope is that these people will be able to keep me informed. Within another five minutes I realize that the place I should be searching for is in fact called “capitol hill,” not “capital hill.” Feeling slightly foolish I attempt to teleport, the feeling that I have gotten myself into something far over my head is looming in the air, it is certainly a good thing I have never claimed myself as being politically aware or knowledgeable in the least bit.
Upon closer examination of my avatar however, a title has appeared above my name, seemingly this game has correctly analyzed and decided what I am attempting to do in my Second Life.
