<p>I'd prefer the complete opposite - lots of integration, so that SL and the Web are no longer separate entities. </p>qarl commented on '2D WEB IN A 3D WORLD'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341bf74053ef00d834c7f15869e22006-06-07T23:21:38Z2007-08-19T13:38:35Zqarlhttp://www.qarl.comthe benefits of htmlonaprim are too many to enumerate. my personal favorite is this: VNC has a java client -...<p>the benefits of htmlonaprim are too many to enumerate.</p>
<p>my personal favorite is this:</p>
<p>VNC has a java client - which can go on a prim - which blows my mind.</p>

<p>Instead of changing the HtmlHelpLastPage value, you can instead add a new line to the settings.ini file:</p>
<pre>HtmlHelpHomePage <a href="http://your.url.here</pre>" rel="nofollow">http://your.url.here</pre></a>
<p>This will always open the help browser to the URL you choose.

However I would really like to be able to get the gecko engine working. So that we can have web browsers as textures on objects.<br />
There is a lot of busines, and a lot of content that could benefit from this.<br />
People would be able to use the Sl client and still get to web pages in context. Shop on Amazon etc before the big companies go to the expense of 'metaverse conversion'. Its a good middle step, that helps SL get accepted in a wider context.</p>rikomatic commented on '2D WEB IN A 3D WORLD'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341bf74053ef00d834c7dc8869e22006-06-07T19:33:44Z2008-01-24T21:15:29Zrikomatichttp://profile.typekey.com/rikomatic/I think you are probably right that lots of residents come to SL to escape the world "out there" and...<p>I think you are probably right that lots of residents come to SL to escape the world "out there" and live in this shared fantasy-space. On the other hand, if SL wants to grow and become the metaverse, it will have to build stronger links to the larger internet. In essense, we are now one step closer to people living, playing and working in the SL paradigm if they can call up the web from in-world rather than switching back to another program.</p>
