Maximize Second Life Settings for Flight
This video illustrates the Second Life Client Graphics settings I use for better flight across sims. These settings lower graphics detail and increase draw-distance. I also recommend using the heads-up mini-map.
As in RL flying, you need as much visual information as possible while navigating in 3 dimensions.
Please note: Depending on your computer and graphics card, your mileage may vary.

Active Worlds running on a Cellphone
This it the Virtual Worlds Activeworlds running on my Treo 750. I am showing both the phone and the PC, which is acting as a virtualized sever. All movement and chatting in world is happening from the phone. I really think it is cool that I can stream a video in world and see it on the phone. Please note, that this Proof of concept, does not support sound or control beyond chatting, and zoom. I had to currently touch the screen in world via my PC to enable the video stream.
