Sociotown - web-based 3D Social MMOG

Sociotown- web-based 3D Social MMOG

SocioTown is a 100% web-based 3D Social MMOG (Massive Multiplayer Online Game). It’s playable in a browser with no downloadable client required. It utilizes Adobe’s Shockwave Player, which most browsers already have installed.
SocioTown is the biggest and most sophisticated browser-based 3D virtual world to date. Players can enjoy a fully immersive and persistent 3D environment such that hasn’t been seen on the web yet. Player data is stored in database servers, so users can play anymore from home, work, or school without skipping a beat.

There's also a video to show you a quick tour. Seriously though, this is a backwards step; the graphics remind me of Habbo hotel, the interface looks much more tedious then SL. I'm not sure what this virtual world contributes that is any different - or better - than others out there, other than you can run it from a browser.
