DJBOT Rocks The AWGATE and ATLANTIS
Active Worlds Software Development Kit (SDK), and a whole bunch of MIDIs, and you get [DJBOT] the latest solution to the problem of updating the music at your nearest GZ. You could stop by Atlantis or AWGate and check out the [DJBOT]'s playlist. Also, if you had suggestions for MIDI's you'd like to hear, you could email your URLS in!

A Galaxy All Your Own?
In 1998 the starting price for a Galaxy was $1,995. This was an idea for businesses. They could designed a stand-alone World separate from the Active Worlds Universe of Worlds. This product gives to the administrator full configuration control over the World. All servers start with 1 million square meters of virtual land and price is based on number of simultaneous users and land size.

The AWTeen World Project
Imagine a world where Teens are in charge of things? Sound like heaven to you? In response to the requests from ActiveWorlds younger users to have a space where they can have a say in how it is run, and can act as their own monitors and greeters, ActiveWorlds set up a world called AWTeen. Under supervision and guidance from some of our adult community members, the teens will be developing their own community focused on their needs and interests. If you were under 18 and interested in participating in the AWTeen World Project all you had to do is contact Lucrezia Borgia for more information.
