Second Life

Hey guys just wondering if anyone has tried out that new MOPG called Second Life. It's simply amazing, although I just started it yesterday I have a feeling that I will be continuing my subscription and having a second life of my own to say the least. Anyway I was wondering if anyone knew of places where I could get scripts or places to get prefabs or anything?

If you don't know what I'm talking about go here:

Five days, it starts as soon as you log in...however you do have to give a credit card which is never charged a dime at all. The only time it will be charged is after the five day trial is up, you will be given an option to stay subscribed for 14.95 a month. I am considering it but this seems like a pretty nice MOPG, you can create and build whatever you want its pretty much limitless.

Check out this link for the five day trial stuff:

It reminds me of a program I was once addicted to called:

Active Worlds ( http://www.activeworlds.com )

So similar it's scary. Both have to be paid for monthly but I assume they are both cool as hell, since If active worlds was this no doubt it mereely an extension of AW's creative possiblities.

its not that bad, at that price your paying the same for Planetside I believe, seriously though you guys shuold try out the free trial, i was really skeptical at first, and then i thought to myself why not try something new ya know? It's pretty amazing what you can do.

True, i tried playing the beta and i guess i was too late, is Planetside a complete graphics heavy system or is it the same way that Second Life is? I.E. Everything is on the server and all you have on your computer is a minimal amount of data?
