Active Worlds
A Whole New Universe
Less well known than Second Life, Active Worlds predates it by nearly a decade.

When it didn't catch on widely, the company began concentrating on making customized virtual worlds for corporations. Today, Active Worlds attracts clients—including Wells Fargo—away from Second Life.
