It's a long time, but isn't this the software they build in the novel Microserfs?
If so the idea's been around a long while, so I guess it just doesn't work in real life.
It's a great geek novel anyway.
- Pamar 10y agoFrom what I remember the sw they were working on in the novel was more like a Virtual Reality lego. I.e. something like what they use in Second Life, or possibly Minecraft, but I don't remember it being aimed at modelling sw architecture. Also, by using a 3D sw you would lose the physical manipulation part, which seems to be important, according to the article linked above.
