There.com is a 3D online world. Much of it consists of tropical islands with extensive Tiki theming, including virtual Tiki bars, drivable dune buggies and gravity-defying surfboards.

Besides allowing visitors to chat while sitting at a digital replica of a Witco bar, There offers jungle exploration, buggy-driving and other activities.

I've been using it as a way of taking virtual vacations on my PC. It'd also be handy for those of us who can't get to in-person Tiki gatherings. Maybe we could book There's Bali Hai bar the next time there's a real-life event.

For more information, please have a look at http://www.there.com/index.html

The software and basic membership are free. Advanced (i.e., for pay) features include voice chat for broadband users, Shoutcast streaming right into the 3D world, better navigation tools for people who want to explore There's islands, and catalogs and auctions containing more clothes for the player's avatar.

If you join, please add "Baron" to your There buddy list. I'm in there a fair bit, and will gladly show you around.
