Sorry that I haven’t been writing. To busy coding. News soon. But a cute thing happend today that I have to share…
I was starting a demo of some Internet-accessible collaborative spaces, and someone else was there! Frank Wattenberg, a colleague at the US Military Academy was in the same space. I had to use the in-world communications facilities to ask him if he wouldn’t mind leaving for a little while.
I guess it was only a matter of time. Time and a lot of effort to get to the point where accidents like this can happen.
Hmmm. Frank’s been trying to find the time for some instruction on how do WAN Croquet. I think he’s figured it out!
