We're going into Second Life

I tried to dabble in Second Life a couple of years ago. My computer had, supposedly, far better than the required specification, but all I managed to do before the PC crashed (without fail, every time) was get my Avatar a name. That's it. He's been standing there (I say 'he' as I chose a male gendered virtual representation of my alter-ego), virtually naked, or literally virtually naked, for two years. 

I wonder if other Avatars have gone up to  him in that time and just pointed at his exposure, or the size of his pixels, and laughed?

Now I'm quite tech-savvy. I'm not a programmer, probably not a fully-qualified geek, and yet am able to explain things online that make 'normal people's' eyes glaze over.

But I've now been tasked with fully exploring the wonderful alternate world of Second Life (and not all the other dozens of Multi-User Virtual Environments that exist to see what we, as an organisation, should be doing there. If anything.

So, where do I start? 

Well, I have the mandate from my line manager, so next thing is to actually get online....
