Distance Education Conference, Diversity University, Online (MOO), Seminar, Jun 01, 1995.

Presentation to MOO-based Diversity University on the topic of the academic MUD created by Jeff McLaughlin and myself. In it, I argue that the MUD format is more user-friendly, and that the need to learn how to create objects in a MOO detracts from the user experience.
