Timeline[]
The 3D virtual chat platform known as Worlds Chat came online around April-May 1995, a pioneer in this particular genre of virtual spaces. It was originally developed in San Francisco, CA at the same time as other 3D projects (like Starbright World and Active Worlds/Alphaworld) by Worlds Inc., formerly Knowledge Adventure Worlds. A Japanese client was later released in 1996. Eventually, Worlds Chat was succeeded by WorldsPlayer in 1998.
