Vzillion Building Virtual World for Search
Vzillion is building a virtual world to search the Web. The service, currently in private beta, will provide users with 3D spaces that they'll use to access the larger world of the Internet and other applications, slowly developing a profile and social sphere that lets the world know what the user might like next.
"Initially I had a vision for Vzillion because I did come from virtual worlds and knew that they could go beyond just being an entity where people come and hang out and listen to music and socialize," said Founder and President Anotonio Collier. "What we really see is a vision to transform the Internet itself. We know that the Internet is so much more than virtual worlds and the social side of Web 2.0. We see Vzillion as the entry point for the new way the Internet will look and feel—from enterprise to consumer."
