Just Askin': Do you have an alt and why?
Second Life Insider
Jan 3rd 2007 9:55AM So let me get this straight? A real life person makes and alt called an avatar in Second Life. For Second Life the avatar makes an alternative avatar. Wouldn't this be Third Life? Ouch, my head hurts.
OK, actually I have an alt for now. I'm setting up an avatar for my RL husband. He's not as into SL as I am, so I'm pre-prepping his avy before I show him around.
