Rhinoceros (Rhino) is a stand-alone, commercial NURBS-based 3-D modeling tool, developed by Robert McNeel & Associates.
ZBrush is a digital sculpting tool that combines 3D/2.5D modeling, texturing and painting. It uses a proprietary "pixol" technology which stores lighting, color, material, and depth information for all objects on the screen. The main difference between ZBrush and more traditional modeling packages is that it is more akin to sculpting.

Second Life (SL) is an online virtual world developed by Linden Lab. A number of free client programs called Viewers enable Second Life users, called Residents, to interact with each other through avatars. Residents can explore the world, (known as the grid) meet other residents, socialize, participate in individual and group activities, and create and trade virtual property and services with one another. Second Life is intended for people aged 13 and over, and as of 2011 has more than 20 million registered user accounts.
CADspan takes the uploaded input geometry and envelops (or 'shrinkwraps') it with a new, single mesh object that is completely solid and 3D printable. Only the exterior geometry is used, so say goodbye to re-creating a 3D print version of your model by stripping out countless hours of interior modeling. Just make sure the exterior of the model is closed, and let CADspan do the rest! In minutes you'll have a 3D print-ready STL file. It's that simple.
