[[Second Life]] avatar [[User:Danton|Danton Sideways]] presents this information to help Second Life users, and also as a showcase for the practice of [[Convivial Tools]]. The main goal is to provide convenient instructions to help make the basic tools of Second Life available to the uninitiated. Most of this information has already been presented elsewhere, such as on the [[Second Life Knowledge Base]] (see the list of [[Second Life Tutorials]]). However, this website aims to organize the data in a text format that provides a high degree of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usability Usability].
