Second Life: Online Game or Addiction?

Question by Sam: Second Life: Online Game or Addiction?
I work in IT and have done for a number of years, I recently thought that with computer hardware and the internet as it is today, there must be a virtual world out there.

I set out to find one and I found “Second Life”. I signed up and I like it, a 3D world you can walk around in and explore, even make real life money from it..

My question is, I can feel myself getting more and more addicted to it and the people I know through Second life are so into their roles it’s scary!

Is this a safe fun addiction to an online game? or is this something to steer away from?
