What exactly IS Second life?
Second Life is a 3-D virtual world entirely built and owned by its Residents. Since opening to the public in 2003, it has grown explosively and today is inhabited by a total of 9,296,032 Residents from around the globe.
· From the moment you enter the World you'll discover a vast digital continent, teeming with people, entertainment, experiences and opportunity. Once you've explored a bit, perhaps you'll find a perfect parcel of land to build your house or business.
· You'll also be surrounded by the Creations of your fellow Residents. Because Residents retain the rights to their digital creations, they can buy, sell and trade with other Residents.
· The Marketplace currently supports millions of US dollars in monthly transactions. This commerce is handled with the in-world unit-of-trade, the
Linden
dollar, which can be converted to US dollars at several thriving online Linden Dollar exchanges.
The most important thing about the world of Second Life is that it is constantly changing and growing. Here's why:
· Thousands of new residents join each day and Create an Avatar
· Those avatars Explore the World and Meet People
· These people discover the thousands of ways to Have Fun
· Some people decide to purchase Virtual Land, which allows them to open a business, build their own virtual paradise, and more!
· Linden Lab creates new land to keep up with demand. What began as 64 acres in 2003 is now over 65,000 acres and growing rapidly.

Why has redbuttafly decided to open a virtual boutique?
Ahh this ones easy. Second Life is a fun place to hang out online, and reaches people all over the world. We are excited at the thought of making the transition from actual reality to virtual reality, and rendering virtual replicas of our real-life line. This means you can dress your avatar in our designs, then go to our website and buy the same thing for yourself!
This cutting edge technology is really cool. How could we not be part of a world where you can fly, sit inside a Van Gogh painting and get drunk on Mars, all in one night?
Our shop is completely 3-d, and you can walk around and take in every detail from our falling house of cards to our card guards at the door. We have pieces from our real life collection, pieces we created just for Second life and free heart shaped glasses for everyone!
Where is redbuttafly’s boutique?
Glad you asked! Our shop is located in
Emerald
City
on the Big Star simulation. Come hang out there, it’s awesome! The people are friendly, the locals are wickedly cool and you can of course follow the yellow brick road to the rainbow at the end! Our offices are located up high in the clouds, but the shops right at the teleport destination.

There is so much to tell.. where do we start? We have made some really great friends from all over the world, and found some of the most creative people ever. Second Life has fueled our imagination, and given us a peek as to what lies ahead in technological breakthroughs. Just imagine all the possibilities… we can.
