<br><br>

This website is a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperlink hyperlinked] set of how-to instructions about using [[Second Life]]. For advice on how to use this site itself, see: [[Start Here]].

[[Second Life]] avatar [[User:Danton|Danton Sideways]] presents this information to help Second Life users. The main goal is to provide instructions to help the uninitiated learn the basic tools of Second Life.

The site is currently '''under construction'''. Any text within an article that is unfinished or in doubt is '''marked in bold characters'''. Articles that are linked to but not yet created appear as [[Red Link]]s.

(For Danton's in-world storefront - also under construction - see [[Danton's Tools House]].)
