Publisher Description
ArcheBooks is very proud to have been selected by v3image to publish their latest book A Beginner's Guide to Second Life. The v3image team has the combination of technical, design, and programming experience. Team members have been previously published by such notable firms as McGraw Hill, Simon & Schuster and PMIC.
As a team they have pooled their Real Life and Second Life Knowledge to provide the reader with an intuitive and simple to follow instructional guide. Their goal was to provide the Newbie with "Need To Know" guidance and do it in a manner that piqued their interest in wanting to explore further. By accomplishing this goal they realized that the information they were putting forth would also have value to those residents that aren't new but have struggled to understand the nuances of Second Life.
While the title is A Beginner's Guide to Second Life, this book will bring value to anyone who is experienced Second Life and has questions.
