An Australian company on Thursday launched a free tool it says offers
web browsers a world-first opportunity to view the Internet in three
dimensions.
Melbourne-based ExitReality said its application allows users to turn
any regular website into a 3D virtual environment, where an avatar
representing them can walk around and meet other browsers viewing the
same website.
Founder Danny Stefanic said that previously only specialised websites
such as Second Life and World of Warcraft allowed users to enter a 3D
environment.
"ExitReality goes far beyond that," he said. "It allows you to view
not just one website but the entire World Wide Web in 3D."
Browsers can use the tool to turn their social networking pages on
sites such as Facebook and MySpace into a virtual apartment, where
photographs are displayed on the wall and links to friends
are "doors" leading to other apartments.
Users can customise their flats by "decorating" with 3D versions of
couches from stores such as Ikea or downloading an e-jukebox to play
music clips stored on their personal page.
Similarly, using ExitReality on video-sharing website YouTube creates
a virtual cinema, where the browser's avatar sits next to other users
also logged on to watch the clip they have selected.
