March 3 - March 9, 1996
What's New With WorldsAway March 3 - March 9, 1996 -The REAL Community On-line -Software Availability -This Week's Listing of In-World Events --The REAL Community On-line Recently in the WorldsAway Dreamscape, a beauty contest was held. Not about one's physical appearance mind you, this conest was more of a parade of the beautiful souls and personalities that live on-line. Awards were given for the most compassionate avatars and many other special personalble categories. A sampling of the most admired individuals of the community, this event showed the obvious emotional ties that unite our members. Heart-felt thank you speeches touched the members that attended. The event for many really seemed to be a communal recognition of their friendships and relationships that make this more than say a "virtual" community. This is a community if not in the physical sense in the Waking World, but certainly in the emotional reality that all normal people experience every day. There are many events in the WorldsAwy Dreamscape that are just as special as the beauty contest. What you make of your time in the Dreamscape, however, is completely up to you and not necessarily dependant on the in-World Event of the day. The challenge is to get involved and make a difference. If you find yourself spending a lot of time on-line with friends, come to WorldsAway where there are interactions and issues. Be a real cyber-citizen and create your own events. You'll make friends and find this is a great place to be. --Software availability WorldsAway software is available for downloading here on CompuServe, or from the WorldsAway Internet Web site at http://www.worldsaway.com You can also order the CD-ROM and floppy disks through the CompuServe Store.
