This website will be a repository of how-to instructions about using [[Second Life]]. It is currently '''under construction'''. For more information, see [[Start Here]].
+
This website is a project of [[User:Danton|Danton Sideways]] concerning [[Real Life]]. For Danton's project concening [[Second Life]], see [http://sluserguide.com Danton's Second Life User Guide].
  
Second Life avatar [[User:Danton|Danton Sideways]] presents this information as a showcase for the practice of [[Convivial Tools]]. The goal is to provide instructions that will help make the basic tools of Second Life, such as building and scripting, easily available to the uninitiated. (But first, I must learn to do these things myself!)

This website is a work in progress, and is in fact just getting started. Words that appear as [[Red Links]] indicate a page that is referred to but has yet to be created.

==About this Website==
 +
This site is an experiment in elaborating a [[mental toolkit]]. A mental toolkit is a collection of [[conceptual scheme]]s which, by reflecting how the world works, help the person carry out individual and collective projects. If the person's mental schemes accurately reflect how the world in fact works, their projects are more likely to succeed. This experiment is rooted in a political outlook: that of trying to distribute power more equally to all members of society. See [[Danton's politics]].

In browsing, you may discover pages or categories on this website left over from when it was used for other things. In fact, I've used this [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediawiki MediaWiki] site for a series of different projects, each of which replaced that preceding.
  
==Is this website a wiki?==

==Contact Danton==
This website runs on [[MediaWiki]] software, which is the wiki software used by Wikipedia. This might give the false impression that this website is a wiki. But in fact only registered users can edit pages, and the only registered user at the moment is [[User:Danton|Danton Sideways]].
