Second Life is a virtual world accessible via the Internet. Users of Second Life, called Residents, appear to each other as customized three-dimensional avatars, and can interact in a wide variety of ways, closely simulating real life.

Second Life was launched by Linden Lab on June 23, 2003. From the start it offered full three-dimensional representation, using data streaming, and a three dimensional modeling tool that allows any resident to build virtual objects, including landscapes and buildings. A system of object ownership and virtual currency has led to a flourishing virtual economy, and has stimulated creative development of sellable consumer objects such as clothing, furniture and vehicles.
