Kiwi: What would you like a tourist to see when they first come to AW?
Jules: Practice making their own CAV to fit there personalities. Then just plain looking around at all the beautiful creations by AW citizens and tourists.

Kiwi: What do you tell your friends about Active Worlds?
Jules: When I talk about AW I get excited. Not for the wonderful things that have come along, like the new CAVs and dance sequences, but for the way you can meet lots of ppl all over the world in a different way. Almost like they are standing in front of you. It's just not your boring chat room with words flying by. It's truly exciting to me.

Steve: I would like people to remember me for my personality and how I love to make new friends.
Kiwi: What keeps you coming into AW?
Jules: AW is more exciting then boring chat rooms. There are lots of things to do. If I get bored I can chat with friends, or just be alone and build something new. It's the things you can do here and the imagination that comes alive in me. AW Rocks!! But mostly the great people and friends I have made. Winks to you Kiwi!
Kiwi: lol ;-)
