Second Life is a virtual community that is owned by Linden Research Inc. It is a world that is created by the users, referred to as residents and has developed massively since my joining 4 years ago. If you have not yet experienced this wonderful world of uniqueness here is the link -- http://secondlife.com/ Upon joining you will create screen name and avatar, so give a little thought to this before you do.
Now let's move onto the main topic of my post, "Ways To Earn Lindens On Second Life". There are so many ways to do this that I cannot possibly cover them all but I will tell you about the opportunities I have experience with and others that I know might be interesting to discuss. I will also be including a more in depth look at some of the ways to make lindens on second life as well -- including helpful links, tutorials and information.
