This paper describes the application of Internet-based three-dimensional (3-D) user interfaces, comparing them with more traditional two-dimensional (2-D) interfaces. The modelling of 3-D worlds in the Virtual Reality Modelling Language (VRML) is described, together with an overview of VRML and its likely future direction. Multi-user shared environments, which enable Internet users to meet and communicate with each other in cyberspace via avatars (3-D representations of users), are then introduced. A shared information garden is described which allows people to meet and share information in a dynamic, information-rich, virtual environment.
