I think this is one of the best threads I've seen on here in a long time and definitely more of what the MUD community should be doing as a whole - figuring out how we can make ourselves more attractive to the mainstream instead of all the infighting we so often see.
Shame we're not on vbulletin yet, I'd love to highlight this and keep it on the front page for a month.
One thing I have a lot of hope for is to find a way to embed a client into a webpage such that it "feels" like a web based game. I know Java clients are out there, but they always have the feel of being "off the page" to me. Perhaps something could be done with Ajax, perhaps some other technology.
Cell phone screens are getting larger too. It's going to be a long time before anyone can play WoW on their blackberry or trio, so there's a good opportunity for MUDs in the meantime.
