Well, most of us usually have only one. Some of us, i will not go into that explanation, have two or more life. For various reasons, we escape sometimes to some other life. Sometimes for fun, sometimes because we cant handle it. Now, I know this is nothing new, but recently, by accident, I got into Second life. Colleagues were bugging me about it, and eventually I have installed client, revoked my old account, and started exploring…When I got there, I didn't knew what to do. Oh, well, its another virtual world, nothing new, little nicer avatars than back in old days – basically just another visual IRC.
And that was so wrong. After few days exploring, I realized that it IS another world, with all basic things world have. You have currency, Linden Dollar, which like any other currency has its value, you can have your house, clothes, vehicles and everything else what you can think of. You can have full time work there, off course, you will be paid in Lindens, but you can convert them to real life money and use it whenever you want to. There are universities so you can learn about second, but also about real life. Like I said, everything you can do in real life. Well, not everything, you cant feel your surrounding, you cant smell loads of people around you, you cant taste food or drinks there, but soon i guess you will have all kinds of emulators that will bring full experience (and i dont even want to think of THAT emulators if you know what i mean ;) ).

But why am I writing this? Well, the way i look at it, its not ONLY second life. Simply because i stumbled on some sims (sim – simulation) where people having Role play. So, when you log in to SL, you are already in second life, but it doesn't ends there. Each sim can be different life. And believe me there are loads of different sims there. In one sim, you can be Star Wars Jedi, dreaded Bounty hunter, Sith or anything else from Star Wars universe, yet on another sim you can be pirate, dragon, escort, policeman, criminal or simply whatever you want to be. You can go very wild on one sim, being something like porn star, yet on another you can be noble samurai. Now, i don't know many samurai that will go porn star in different sim, but point is made.

So, again, how many life's  you have?
