Here it is -- VRMLSite Magazine! Many thanks to sponsors Superscape and Aereal Inc. for their support. Equal thanks are due to Editor John Gluck and our writers for their patience with us during these exciting, challenging times!

VRML is here too. Since it's now built into Netscape Navigator, VRML is enjoying unprecedented popularity and usage by Web developers. As it says in the movie "The Ghost in the Shell": "The Net is vast and infinite", and people are finding that 3D makes the thousands of Web pages much easier to surf. When I want to find the phone number of a business, I don't type it into the computer -- I flip through the yellow pages to the part of the book I know it'll be at because of the 3D ordering of the alphabetical categories.

When I want to find something in my office, I don't head to the filing cabinets -- I know it's in THAT pile of papers, because I have a visual map of where the info is.

VRML can now be seamless in a Web site -- is it Java, is it Gif89, is it Mimecon, or is it VRML?! As the 6K navigation bar of VRMLSite shows by example: VRML does not require more bandwidth than HTML. (Kudos to Dennis McKenzie on the navigation bar design.)

Now with VRML 2.0 entering the lists, we're ready to rock.

Are you coming?
