== Metaverse ==

The Metaverse is a collective virtual space inhabited by individuals’ [[avatar]]s, each described as “…a part of the moving illustration drawn by his computer according to specifications coming down the fiber-optic cable. The people are pieces of software called avatars. They are the audiovisual bodies that people use to communicate with each other in the Metaverse.” The term was coined by Stephenson and illustrates his vision of how the future of the Internet may evolve to embed [[virtual reality]] technologies.
