Book excerpt: Have you ever done something that you thought you would never, EVER do? I did. On the computer. CyberDayze explores the implications of allowing your 'intangible', cyber life to cross over into your 'tangible', real life -and the consequences therein. As a non-fiction book written loosely in an autobiographical format, CyberDayze also has a theory buried within. But I deliberately DID NOT disclose my thesis statement up front, with supporting documentation following. Rather, I turned it the other way around, which, in essence, made my supporting statements more of a mystery read-hints, mind you-and asking the Reader here and there, Do you understand what Im trying to say, yet, Reader? sprinkled within. Almost to the very end, I hold out, until I sum up the circumstances of events they had read and ALAS! agree that I certainly well might have a valid argument here. The content is engaging. Interesting. Sad. Thought-provoking. Funny! And, yes, even erotic. It is well worth the read and delivers a substantive message in its wake...

Download or read book CyberDayze My Second Life written by Joe Fallen and published by . This book was released on 2018-04-23 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following in the footsteps of CyberDayze, written by Gina Davis, and co-Author of CyberDayze: My Second Life is a continuation of another person's antics in the virtual world he coined 'Sin City' and formally known as Second Life. As Wikipedia explains it:"Second Life is an online virtual world, developed and owned by the San Francisco-based firm Linden Lab and launched on June 23, 2003. By 2013, Second Life had approximately 1 million regular users.[1] In many ways, Second Life is similar to massively multiplayer online role-playing games; however, Linden Lab is emphatic that their creation is not a game: "There is no manufactured conflict, no set objective".Follow with Joe in his five year addiction to the game, the many personas that he created, stating that each was even more morally demented than the preceding persona.The book lends the question on why seemingly balanced individuals in real life find such an attraction in creating devious characters and acting out less than admirable antics while engrossed in this virtual world. We also share his confusion of his behaviors, his love/hate relationships with others involved in the game, the negative effects that took place in his real life as a result of his lengthy addiction to this game and how he was forced to ultimately give up his participation in Second Life as it further took his real life into serious difficulties that could no longer be ignored. He also acknowledges his love for his online relationships, as well as his love for the game, since he adamantly explained that his Second Life was so much better than his real life. This made his cold turkey breakaway from Second Life difficult and painful. He also admits to finding himself logging on to the game at times, when temptation overwhelms his better judgment.I hope that professionals in psychology and the newly emerging field of cyber psychiatry can use this work academically and for case study in trying to understand why we do what we do in the WorldWideWeb that runs completely counter to our real life morals and values. I came across a book called The Cyber Effect, written by a pioneering cyber psychologist Mary Aiken, PhD, who explains on her book's cover, "Human behavior changes online."And that, it certainly does. My book CyberDayze and CyberDayze: My Second Life are actual proof of her theory. I beseech you to read it, as her arguments shed light on the 'whys' of my and Joe's seemingly unexplainable behavior in our respective works.There currently is no existing genre for our books and it is my goal to remedy this, since I firmly believe that others will have their own cyber stories to share in days to come. After all, it's a new world we now live in with the advent and rapid rise of the WorldWideWeb. I have named this new genre Social Network Psychology.
