WebFlock: easy virtual worldlets in the browser

image

WebFlock is an application for private-labeled, Web-based virtual experiences. Developed by the Electric Sheep Company of New York City, WebFlock provides a visually immersive environment for social interaction, media consumption and game play. Key benefits include: Fun social interaction combined with content, game play, and/or events; Greater time-on-site and user engagement; A brand-owned, customized and focused user experience; Easy to use and accessible to anyone running Flash in the Web browser. In the pictures, one of Electric Sheep managers is explaining me some key features of the platform.

WebFlock runs in any browser with the Flash plugin. Since the Flash plugin is installed on almost all browsers, this effectively means that WebFlock runs in the browser without needing any download and installation. WebFlock is very easy to use, much easier than other 3D environments, as it pragmatically avoids “difficult” user interface elements. If my grandmother were alive, she would learn how to use WebFlock in a couple of minutes. This is not a general purpose platform for every conceivable VR application or a competitor to rich VR environments or 3D business applications, but rather a lean, fit for purpose tool for creating branded multiuser virtual worldlets that run in the browser and can be integrated into any website. For example a 3D reception and product information area, or a rich community site for chatting over pictures, art and video. A WebFlock environment can be fully customized with standard commercial 3D design tools. Flash video from any source can be streamed to WebFlock, and the second picture demonstrates the integration of Flash casual games.

In collaboration with the Electric Sheep Company, we at metafuturing will offer our clients full consulting, design, development, hosting and installation services for this new light, fast, accessible and easy 3D environment. Contact us to discover how you can easily integrate 3D worldlets in your web presence.
