More Second Life Notes

This week in second life, I got the privilege of taking part in some of the islands scheduled events. These are the times when there seems to be the most activity taking place as far as user interaction. The events generally take place at 8pm second life (about 11pm in real life), which shows that the users like to get on to play at night time. The event I attended was trivia night. I arrived a bit early, just to see what was going on. There were several people dancing out on the main dance floor, socializing with one another and having a good time. When 8 rolled around, we headed over to the club for some trivia fun. Everyone seemed to enjoy answering the general knowledge questions, some of them were pretty tough. I also observed people playing some of the games positioned about, there seemed to be some video games and things people could play. All in all everyone got along really well and seemed to enjoy each other's company. I like the way the people in this land can come together to have a good time, despite the various looks of the avatars. It seems that there are no outcasts here, everyone just wants to have a good time. I also noticed that this place seems to be more of an active place than a place to relax. Perhaps during non-scheduled event time, people will take a rest and relax by the pool, but during this time, everyone seemed to be actively engaged in socializing and dancing. I look forward to the final observations to make about this place that will come in the next week.
