cyberboy // User SearchIE 5.5 and teleport linksAug 2, 2001, 2:45am
If I use my Internet Explorer 5.5 browser stand-alone (not in the AW
browser), none of the teleport links will work. Yet using the AW browser (IE 5.5 still), allows all teleport links to work fine. Any suggestions on setting changes I might make to my IE 5.5 so when I use it stand-alone, it will automatically open AW software and complete the teleport link like it used to and like Netscape does? Thanx, CyberBoy -- Please visit my website http://www.2virtualdreams.com AW in the spotlightAug 22, 2001, 7:02am
there was a short bleep on A & E recently about AW....here is a link to a
clip of the show it is a real media file and the bleep on AW begins at the 29 minute mark - u will have to remove the space in the following url and below is a copy of my comments sent to that shows host ht tp://news.bbc.co.uk/olmedia/cta/progs/01/future_just_happened/progs/outside. ram Michael Lewis~ I hope to shed some light on your seemingly awkward experience in AlphaWorld at ActiveWorlds.com and perhaps offer a second chance for a successful visit. Your engagement in AlphaWorld, the largest of over 1,000 Virtual Reality worlds in ActiveWorlds, might have benefited from the support of a seasoned tour guide, which you so desperately sought. It may seem "fast-paced" at first and does require an extended visit, more than two minutes, to begin to comprehend it's capacity. Virtual Reality can be confusing to a novice user because it is very complex, yet deeply engrossing, fulfilling, and meaningful. Quite contrary to your opinion of "keeping the world at a distance," ActiveWorlds is mainly an attempt to bring the global population much closer together. It is also a family environment with close-knit communities and moral standards that do not tolerate unethical behavior, such as removing an avatars clothing. The gesture of an idle Tourist avatar is an arm-swinging motion, not a gender-specific, egotistical action. The gray "fat" avatars that are default for Tourists and initial entry avatars for Citizens (upon entering a world for the first time before switching to a suitable avatar for your persona) may seem to be "ignoring" or "running away" from others, usually because the number of users in an area is larger than the users browser settings and may not be directly within another's visibility, much like a visit to a real-life shopping center full of strangers. I have been a Citizen of ActiveWorlds over 4 years now, belong to several communities, and have even become an independent world owner. I have developed endearing relationships with many people from all over the world. It has been an exciting learning and growing experience for me and several thousand other participants. ActiveWorlds goes beyond a three-dimensional chat application as a cultural melting-pot and an advanced educational tool, including many degrees of schooling worlds, community events, achievement recognition, and much more. It's quite an astonishment in that every object, in every world, is proudly made and built by humans. I invite you back to ActiveWorlds and extend my service as your personal tour-guide so that you might realize the limitless possibilities available through this enriching technologically advanced software. Truly your ActiveWorlds neighbor, CyberBoy Pink Village Pride Festival 2000Oct 24, 2000, 11:23pm
