Hi,

What do you think about WOO's - Web MUD's?

I was looking around and I found out that there's a lot of neat projects 
out there that involve converging Web Media and Multiple User Dimensions.
Most of this research is done in MOO languages or C, but I was thinking 
that LISP may be better suited because LISP is good for rapid prototyping.

I was thinking, the CL-HTTP hypermedia server would be great for this 
type of research because a lot of cutting edge stuff can be done in LISP 
and LISP variants - The Disney VR world is in Scheme, HIT Lab VR worlds 
are in XLISP, There's Scheme MUD's, etc.

A lot of MUD's are based on OO type languages - LambdaMOO. Maybe CLOS and 
the Meta-Object Protocol would be great for distributed MUD's.

Any ideas?
