MUDs Continued
Here are additional things people have done with MUDs and related information.
1)A Chaos Nomenclature. This site is from AmberMUSH. A player on AmberMUSH decided to publish on the web how characters of a certain type (those from Chaos) should be named.
2)Combined Conference on Educational Uses of MUDS (Multi-User Domains), and Third CAETI MUD Shop.
3)Information Technolog & Learning.
4)A subgroup of MUDs, called MOOs, are featured heavily in both social and academic research settings. Follow this link to find out more about MOOs: How to MOO, History of MOOs, and links to some choice MOOs.
5)This site features a list of MUD related web sites, and visitors can apparently automatically add any urls to the list.
6) EFF's (Extended) Guide to the Internet: A round trip through Global Networks, Life in Cyberspace, and Everything... This particular site is a huge write up and guide to the Internet, posted onto the web so as to make it publicly accessable but also readable in hypertext format. There are a few subsections that involve MUDs.
7)This appears to be a message posted to the newsgroup (Usenet) rec.games.mud.misc by Richard Bartle whose email address is (76703.3042@CompuServe.COM) concerning the popularity of text-based muds. Richard Bartle was responsible for one of the original MUDs.
8)Here is the MUD Connector, a web site with a huge listing of MUDs, MOOs, MUSHes, and more!
9)Here is the url to an Alta Vista search for the word "muds", with a result of 61,720 hits, though not all of them will be worthwhile, many of the sites linked to this project were found from such a search.
