the future of net communities
so an online pal got me thinking about the future of net interaction and how virtual reality might enhance the experience - make it more real.
so i whipped over to youtube, to see what state the tech's now at:
someone there commented on this clip, saying~: "Ok for one, who wants to pay 350 to look like a major toolbag? And btw who has access to a wall outlet? What is this 1985?"
yeah, where is the virtual reality interactive world we long dreamed of?
and how come i still haven't got a hover car?
one day, i hope to stick on my VR glasses, walk down my web homepage street and have all my favourite meeting places arrayed in front of me like an old fashion high street, where i can nip into VR starbucks and sit down with online pals and yap...
maybe not in this lifetime, given the currently lacking state of the "art"...
and they say technology will save us, eh?
sheesh!
