Second Life is only one grid per say within your viewer.  There are other virtual worlds which is why you see multiple grids which accommodate all of the Open Sim project grids.

As Chelsea said, however, if you want to be able to communicate with your friends and groups and have access to your inventory and things you have purchased within SL the only "grid" you should log into is Agni (aka main grid). If you log in to the aditi grid (aka beta grid) you will not have access to all the things and even the money you have there is fake. Finally as stated before if you log into another virtual world grid (assuming you have an account there) you will not be in SL but on that world.

Nope.

You only need to look at the map to see what a grid is.

Second Life, as we all know it, is the "Production Grid", also known as the "Main Grid", or "Agni". There is also "Aditi", or "The Beta Grid", which is used for beta testing but is technically separate from what we think of as Second Life. Then there are tons of internal testing grids that only Lindens can get to. And asChealsea said, there are "OpenSim" grids, which aren't part of Second Life at all, but are (kind of) compatible with the viewer.
