We just launched Metachat on MySpace. if you have a MySpace profile, feel free to add it as an app -- it's fully public. http://www.myspace.com/metachatThis is just one of the sorts of world that can be made, of course. We'll be doing rolling releases over the next few months of more kinds of virtual worlds and places.

If you don't have Myspace, are you locked out of this app?
Either way, is it possible to pick up this app and drop it into some other web host?

You are right now, yes. It will be possible to put this world (or any other) on any webpage soon :). In fact, you could actually point to the SAME world as MySpace, or your own copy of it, whichever you preferred. Edit: forgot to make clear -- this is not a MySpace-specific app. It's just the regular Metaplace client wrapped in OpenSocial. More techie sorts of details are at http://www.metaplace.com

Huh, I thought Claire was Cuppycake. But I guess Cuppycake would be on as Cuppycake. Yeah it was awesome. I logged on and clicked some dude's link, then I looked your MySpace page! MMO REVOLUTION! (Sarcasm aside, this is pretty neat.)

A cool thing just happened. I was hanging around in Metachat and a user called MatthewTyas logged in. He said nothing, but used the dictionary definition feature to define "rabbit", then linked a YouTube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDnvpcprew8Turns out it's him singing and it's good. He's a real musician in France. Still hasn't said anything. But that makes Metachat an active extension of his MySpace page. I became a fan. And I posted his music here.

Get out of MySpace before it kills us all.
No tech can make that dismal place worth the visit.

It's not really in MySpace, it's an environment of its own - essentially an Areae app under a MySpace toolbar.

Is that Morgan Ramsey on Raph's top friend list on MySpace the crazy viral disruptive marketeer who was here for a while only to be insulted so much and so quickly that he couldn't do anything but leave? Nice entertaining thread that one, by the way. I miss it.

Actually, I would really appreciate a visit from any F13er. I feel lonely here in CrapLand. I got coffee, beer and a good vista over Catholicism HQ (perfect for planning griefing ops over Popeville while sipping on gin and juice). So post away.

That's a shame: this is the first year in four that I've not been to Rome, at least for a day or two. I'm guessing that you mean Rome, and that you're on the east bank of the Tiber?

Exactly. I am in spit range from the vatican. And yes, I would love to meet you. Yes, you can beat me with a pointed stick when that happens but please be aware that I'll defend myself with fresh fruit. Seriously, gimme a call next time  EDIT: Wait, no... west bank of the Tiber! Vatican is on the west bank. Uh gee I am confusized.

I knew that, and have no idea why I said east, given that I was visualising it (specifically, the Castel S. Angelo) in my head. I should have said left bank... I don't think I'm in Rome at all this year@ it's probably Venice, Athens and Barca instead. Damn those missed opportunities. This was slightly off-topic, I accept.

Well, it's aimed at MySpace people. Should, let's say, there be an f13 world here on the forums, it can and presumably would look completely different.

So the invite button should say "Call Forth the Thundercunts" I presume.

If you've got it and the self-confidence, flaunt it. She was good fun and helpful in Metachat. More Claire.

Wow, Morgan posted here? Heh, that guy is a trip. Debate with him enough and he'll start presenting logic puzzles that involve trains or pumpkins yet nothing to do with the subject at hand. I love it when he and Prokofy get into it.
I want a Metachat for this whole community. We could challenge Corpnews to a soccer match!
