Google 'Lively' virtual world

Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/Google 'Lively' virtual world

Seems Google have gotten into the '3D virtual world' / '3D avatar chat' market with their new product, Lively.

Tried it out, created a room, then joined another with people in it.
It's just IRC with 3D graphics.

A browser version of Microsoft Comic Chat :)

I saw this over at http://www.hackaday.com (which is now being overrun with news instead of hacks)

From Google? lies.

I really hope that this product dies. This is just another of a series of products that just want to suck the life out of you. I recommend that no one here downloads it. (deps you already failed) If you want a "lively" life then go outside the house.


Go download Age of Conan for an enjoyable experience.

I agree, try mowing a huge lawn, in 90 degrees weather.

I prefer programming, as it is much more exciting then games (unless your gathering ideas from a game, but that's a whole different subject).

Yet another forum for old men pretending to be young women, Fantastic!

Don't forget the Furries!

Mow the lawn when it's 90 degrees? Surely you jest! Isn't that the temperature at which people in Europe spontaneously combust? I know at 70 they're complaining about heat stroke.

Geez, I wish. It's usually more then 90 here. (this year it's been cool so far though)

Well my lawn is not huge but I love mowing it in the sun, it's a welcome break from the computer. In that heat I'd just wear shorts except for safety I'd wear thick boots instead of sandals which is a bit of a bummer. Actually to be honest you are not supposed to mow your lawn when it's too sunny, better in the morning or evening (I think, or that just might be when you are supposed to water it).

Oh yes, but sometime those reallly loong coding sessions keep you asleep until laternoon. (guilty)

mean you buggers have been having sunshine?
we had a massive downpour on monday and perpetual drizzle nigh on ever since
then there will be a hose pipe ban in a weeks time ;)

USA (Un-United States of America) o.O

For me at least.
