Those aren't really fixed - you can rotate them and zoom in and out.

I think you missed something here. There *is* interactivity. You can
completely script your world with JavaScript. With it, you can move things
around, make sounds, do animations, react on the user (although last time I
checked clicking on objects didn't really work well due to a bug), and a lot
more. It's a zillion times more advanced than AW's 'scripting'. And you can
also script the avatars to make them do things.

I'm sure they will :-)

[View Quote] They are actually looking beyond wintel platforms only, and non-hardware acc
stuff is not tied to certain hardware. It will get hardware acc later on,
but the priorities are elsewhere (at creating a nice, interactive
environment).

[View Quote] Why do you think it's still in beta? It's not finished yet. It's been
software only for over two years, and still lives. I expect it to live for
quite a bit longer.

[View Quote] It only works if everybody does it - in other words, the person behind the
counter must ignore the impolite queue too. If, in the newsgroups, only two
people rant at each other, that's enough to go on. One person won't make it.

[View Quote] That varies. In the post office there's a clear you <-> person behind the
counter. Here we all talk to each other, so we all take turns.

People are sharing help, thoughts and idea's more than ever using the net.
This includes things you won't like.

[View Quote] Some people consider flaming a sport, for example. They honestly like to
flame each other over all kinds of silly things. (but not on the "you suck"
level - that's just stupid flaming.) Other people think those people are
sick and don't want to get near them.

In general, since there are so many people online, there are always people
who do and say things you don't agree with or are annoyed by. The web
contains a lot of crap. Some people freak out on the amount of crap and
think the net is a mess, others just search for the gems. It's just a matter
of how you choose to view it.
