Second Life and Dwight Schrute

I am a huge fan of "The Office" and had to laugh when I was watching the show a couple of weeks ago. We have been talking about social web sites in class, and coincidentally, on an episode of The Office called "Local Ad", Dwight was playing Second Life all day at work. The character he had created looked exactly like him, lived in a house identical to his in real life, and was a paper salesman. The only difference in Dwight's Second Life character was that he could fly.

Pretty hysterical concept that someone would spend hours in cyberspace creating a character that was exactly like himself.
