◊ PALACE
Palace
A proprietary multi-user {virtual
reality}-like {talk} system.
The Palace is distinguished from most other VR-like systems in
that it is only two-dimensional rather than three; rooms,
{avatars}, and "props" are made up of relatively small 2D
{bitmap} images.
Palace is a crude {hack}, or lightweight, depending on
your point of view.
