The show is scheduled to run from November 21 to November 23, 2008. Users can download the Active Worlds browser at http://www.activeworlds.com/ and teleport to the world 'awexpo' where the event is hosted.

"Our purpose this year is to further the ability of the Active Worlds community and VR-based business to illuminate, demonstrate, and promote their goods and services and creations to the general public," said Christopher Walker, exhibit coordinator for Active Worlds Expo.

Some of the exhibitors involved with the expo this year include the software development houses Turtleflight and ImaBot, AWPortals.com, SWCity.net, and Draedan Entertainment, developers of AWRPG and the forthcoming Ashianae's Journey, a standalone role playing computer game based on the Active Worlds software.

These open houses are times when booth exhibitors will be present to talk with visitors and answer questions about their booth and their exhibitions. Scheduling information for these events will be posted on AWExpo.org before the show opens on November 21.
