I love this idea — a sort of virtual location that takes the place of cafes and bookstores that no longer exist in the real world.
I've given some thought as to how VR could be applied to something like this and, furthermore, how an IRC-esq protocol for VR rooms and characters could work. I'm waiting for WebXR to advance a bit more before trying to implement it myself, but I'd be really interested in community discussion of the idea.
- desertraven 5y agoI’m very interested in this space also. Especially living remotely, I find HN to be my primary place for meeting like minded people. Even when I go to cities, intentional spaces for people to openly discuss ideas and collaborate aren’t really promoted. The layout of venues doesn’t really encourage this either.
- nynx 5y agoAbsolutely. Do you work in a relevant area?
- desertraven 5y agoI’m a freelance software/web dev. Have no experience with VR/AR/MR, mainly because I’ve not felt it to be quite there yet. That may be changing though. How about you?
