Second Life Client description
Second Life is a 3-D virtual world entirely built and owned by its residents.

A world of possibilities — a place where you have the ability to do almost anything you can imagine. In a little over a year, Second Life’s Residents have crafted a richly textured world filled with hundreds of thousands of objects of their own creation.

Complex and compelling characters dwell in every conceivable building from whimsical hobbit-houses to soaring urban towers to a medieval castle where visitors battle giant insects to win treasure. The local zoo features killer whale rides, speed boats ply the waterways, and a Resident-abducting alien space ship has been known to visit - all of it imagined and created by Second Life’s Residents.

To start your Second Life trial, simply download Second Life, register to create your character, choose your membership plan, and log in. You're second life is here!
