Re: Are MUDs the clog dancing of online gaming?
Java is truly multi-platform, as long as the computer has Java installed.
While I was speaking of a Java application that could be used as a client, it is entirely possible to create an applet to run in a browser as a client.
I believe Bo Zimmerman of CoffeeMud has a basic Java applet called "Siplet" that even uses MXP tags. Now that is not a pretty applet to me, but it does show a functionality for web browsers beyond what I have usually seen.
Again, I believe a Java application of a MUD client would be best.
