Invest in the Entrepreneur’s Guide to SL
To add to the fun we had at our book party this weekend, Daniel Terdiman is throwing a party of his own, to celebrate the publication of his own book, The Entrepreneur’s Guide to Second Life. If you’re around San Francisco this Wednesday (Nov. 7), crash the party at the CNET offices, where Dan works, pick up a copy of the book, and check out all you ever wanted to know about making money in the metaverse. Rather than the usual thin gloss on selling prim skirts, the book actually takes a deep dive into the process of building and running a business in the virtual world of Second Life, covering everything from laying foundations and writing a business plan, to entering the fashion world, the real estate business, the virtual construction trade, the “adult” industry and even running a business on SL’s teen grid. I know Dan worked his ass off on this one, and it shows. Check it out for yourself and let me know if you agree.

Mark,
Thanks for the nice write-up. I just wanted to add that I’ve got a blog, as well, covering the topic of entrepreneurship in Second Life. The blog features regular commentary on the subject, as well as suggestions (taken from the book) from dozens of profitable SL entrepreneurs, including some of the best-known businesspeople. The address is entrepreneursguidetosecondlife.blogspot.com. Please come and visit.
I recently attended to a “Second Life meeting” here in Florence (Italy) and I saw that “videogame” (sorry) for the first time. I think something is going definitively wrong these days :)…
Cheers
Laura
Congrats on the book.
Look forward to picking up a copy, and maybe getting it signed at some point.
An excerpt from the book is featured on News.com (which I believe Mr. Terdiman pens for) http://tinyurl.com/23d6kt
Guess while I’m at it, better pick up a copy of Mark’s book too .
