IT Industry Holiday Freeze.  - Sunday November 14 2004

I put this down a while ago for work, but as the ice sets in I'll be picking it back up again. Not sure which way to go, maybe take it from a standalone app to an applet or browser plugin (go firefox!). And maybe back to idea of democratic representation of importance for sites. Any comments, questions, requests or ideas send mail to beppert@webjack.org.

New Home  - Thursday June 17 2004

A new site, and a new version of the app are available relating to a name change. Also in the new installers to the left is some improved peer group intitialization that should improve the odds of running into other users in the 3d world. See ya.

Flight Test  - Friday April 9 2004

Well, here you have it. Download, install, decide what you think of it and let me know how it behaves. The basic instructions are as follows: mouse click on a thing to get closer to it, right click to pull back away. Add sites with the red button, double click them to view the page.
