Agent1's AW Recommendation

Delirium - AW 3430N 2327W 0.2a

Lots of stuff around in this cool build! :) Looks like a security tower near the teleport-in site, a few boats, and some camp grounds are just a few of the things that Delirium has put together here. Nice job :)

Atlantis: Blue Bay Resort Atlantis 68.0S 139.0E 0.0a 12

Hi...This month I'm going to send you to the Blue Bay Resort built by 3i. This is a beautiful spot in Atlantis. A place like one would hope to find in the real world. Located at 68.0S 139.0E 0.0a 12.

 

Canopus
Mars World Page

Canopus' Mars Recommendation

One of the Solar System's most fantastic collections of animated objects is located in the far Southwest of Mars. These amazing animations were created by Shrike, and are a logical choice of Hotspot for the merry month of May. The huge site contains a ferris wheel and other rides, petting zoo, jugglers, giant musicians, and more, all joined by a skytram. Shrike's amusement park is located at Mars 119S 682W 60.

Visitors arriving from Earth can take a rocket plane from the Orbiting Space Station (0N 953W 30.6A). to Tyrrhenum Spaceport (123S 994W 6.8A). Travel overland from the Spaceport on the Isidis Railway, heading north toward the edge of the Southern Highlands and the beginning of the Utopia Plain. Join the Nepenthes Tour at Etherium Station (95N 802W 0.2A 330). and head for Shrike's place.

jupytr's COFMeta Recommendation

The GBC Compound (Global Biomechanics Consortium)COFMeta 128S 199E 270

The GBC is truely a jewel in Meta. A real must see. Within, you will find towering, ominous buildings (in Meta's own unique style), as well as many realistic places. There's a theater, tattoo parlour, nightclub, cafes, and tons more. Lots of creativity, thought and detail went into building the GBC. Walk the streets and try to see it all. You might not. It's an amazing place. See for yourself. I'm impressed. Great work Rhedd :)

GooberKing's UTN Recommendation

Kalaville - AW 11550.6N 11538.1W 80

This quaint little village has been around for almost a year now and has gathered quite a few interesting structures in that amount of time. From the functional, like their Town Hall and Post Office, to the imaginative, like the Walk-About Map and Drive-In Theatre, everything in Kalaville is built with style and creativity! So set out to explore Kalaville today!

AWCOMREG's Recommendation

Religion Online

This month we bring to you the Active Worlds Buddhist community center. With a unique building style, and an open forum, this community offers the chance to come in and discuss the Buddhist religion openly and freely with other Buddhists. The community tries to hold scheduled chats twice a week, and encourages informal chats at other times. The building itself offers links on the Buddhist religion, as well as links to other Buddhist sites in Active Worlds. Whether your a believer or not, the community offers you a chance to learn more about a different religion. Come to talk, debate, or listen, you won't be disappointed.

The CLC Recommendation

Town: Goober Town
Mayor: Goober King
Location: Alpha World 71.3S 3740.9w

Any monthly reader of the newsletter should know Goober King by now, but do you know anything about his town. Did you even know he had a town? This is one of my favorite towns in all of Alpha World. It's pretty realistic (something I personaly love to see) and well detailed. Being the town of a real "go-getter" and committed AW adict, you can expect to see a lot of talent in this town. As a final note, I think my favorite feature of the town is the full network of power lines, something I've never seen in any other town. Heck, the poles even have built in lights. This is a mid sized town with available lots.
