    Virtual world is fallen, too

    Residents in Second Life can create their own dream world in which they can fly, teleport to any destination or change their appearance to that ideal body they have always wanted by creating an avatar. An avatar is a virtual 3D image of the user and can be changed as often as desired. The program is very similar to the computer game “The Sims,” but instead of make-believe characters created by the user, the Second Life avatars are owned and operated by real people.
