As we all know starting to live in the world of second life can have its difficulties even IF on the web you can find many interesting tutorials. Lately I've came across a quite interesting book "How to do everything in Second Life". First i tough: "It's just a money collecting scam and at the end it wont teach you anything. But as I can't sleep until I'm 100% sure I've correctly judged someone or something, I went to do a small research on it. The search results were interesting, there were some reviews that it was great and of course some reviews that it wasn't "all that and a bag of chips". So I said to my self, Ok lets give it a try, maybe even I'll learn something, I mean it is ONLY 16$. After the 16$ dollars spent from my paypal account I started reading it. The book is FREAKIN' AWESOME. It really does teach you everything, from being a total noob, to having your own company with employees.
The author: Richard Mansfield (the author of 41 computer books which have sold more than 500,000 copies worldwide and have been translated into 12 languages) described his book: The book is filled with hundreds of hands-on tutorials, tips, and techniques, this is the thorough, in-depth reference that every Second Life resident needs. Learn how to create a unique avatar and then explore, build, socialize--and even earn real money. Inside, you'll find exclusive coverage of all the menus, features, and utilities. Whether you're a newbie or an old hand, this book will help you get the most out of Second Life.
