There's so much to do in Second Life that it makes sense to narrow it down to what you are interested in: Try searching with the search bar (in the upper-right). You may be surprised at what you find.
Guides and other sites
- Click the tab on the sidebar and click Destination Guide. Linden Lab editors regularly scour Second Life for cool places and include many Resident-submitted venues.
- You can also see the Destination Guide on the web, which is a great way to quickly show neat Second Life places to a friend who hasn't yet joined.
- Some places also appear in the Eureka blog's featured stories.
- Browse the Xstreet virtual marketplace and inworld for cool things to outfit your avatar and play with.
- Visit Second Life Answers and ask fellow Residents for advice. For example, "What's a cool, futuristic club?" or "Does anyone have any recommendations for shoes with wings?"
Other Residents
Hover your cursor over another Resident, click to show an inspector, then click More. In the sidebar, click Picks tab, which may show some of their favorite locations. This is especially worth doing when you've gotten to know someone better, and even added them as a friend.
Saving landmarks and picks
When you find a place you like:
- Add it to your landmarks by choosing World > Landmark This Place.
- If you're really fond of it, show it off by adding it as a one of your picks.

For more suggestions, including Resident-shared tips, see the Discover page.
