Its a lonely (Active)World

Playing around this rainy morning in ActiveWorlds. Download client pretty quickly. No Pain there. Unfortuntely, it makes SecondLife look lively (I was the only tourist - thats the same as a guest account). No pun intended on the word Lively - which was the virtual world launched last year by Google and died just before Christmas 2008. Nice graphics in ActiveWorld - not much different than in 2nd Life. Fast. Terrible fashion sense for the poor tourist. The navigation is much more simple and user friendly than in Second Life. The audio was superb. Not bad but is it a life I can afford or will return to? Stay tuned.
