Group Project 1
For the first group project our group was assigned to interview people on Second Life. So far, I have been searching for people to interview. I did approach a few people to ask for an interview but one declined me and the other was not interested. I think the reason may be because they are not looking for questions in Second Life. I think that they are actually looking at it as a social network. While looking for people I found a few places where a lot of people were at and teleported, however it seemed that they already had groups of friends and I felt like I was intruding when I approached them.
For now, I will be continuing to ask people for interviews and explore Second Life to see where I can meet new people who will be willing to take my interview. I think also from now on I will try and be more forward about what I am asking of them instead of trying to be friends with them first, which is what I was doing. Also, I am going to simplify my questions so they can understand more easily,

Secondlife 9/10/08
Today, we were to go onto to secondlife and either locate free stores and purchase things or we were to try and get money. I spent all of my time looking for clothing, shoes, accessories, etc. at the freebee store I went to. The only store I went on and shopped at was one called The Free Dove. It had everything for men and women that included such things such as clothes, jewerly, shoes, hats, and hair. I bought each of these items and a lot of diffferent kinds.
Some things I liked about recieveing free things that it felt like I could get anything thing I wanted. Therefore, I got anything I liked and did not care how much I had because it was free, it’s something that I would never encounter in real life. Overall, I had a hard time choosing what to get and how to even click on the items to buy, sometimes it would not let me while others worked right away. I enjoyed buying things because that is what I like to do in real life and because I did not have to worry about spending too much money which sometimes is the case in real life.
