They're great, and probably more 'efficient' than regular
email, but I haven't visited often since I taught a course
which featured them. (I subsequently offered to build that
Fine Art Dept their own MOO based on their own campus
buildings which were being torn down and modernized.).
MediaMOO (at MIT) was a favourite: where else could you
encounter/converse/and build very complex virtual-worlds
with such a wide-range of people/professions... There were
as a recall, ascii-cameras/recorders, projectors, meeting
rooms and theaters, libraries with 'real' books, various
bots that would creatively engage you in conversation and
hand you a beer, tunnels to different domains and web-sites,
objects and rooms that you designed and integrated with the
existing virtual architecture... AntheMOO is still going
strong as are many others I'm sure.
