Does anyone know of a glossary of terms for SL residents? I've only been around a couple of weeks and initially found the language of SL confusing (along with many other things, of course). There are some terms and abbreviations explained by FlipperPA in his FAQ Notecards, but a single more extensive collection could have (and still would) helped me hugely. Anyone fancy writing one? Incidentally, Flipper's notecards are superb - I've found them often more helpful than the SL Help; they should be much more easily accessible somewhere, or all new residents should be sent a link on joining.

Hi Bob

Lewis Nerd's excellent Stratics site has a glossary of SL terms.
