MOO's stand for Object Oriented MUD's where
MUD stands for Multi-User Dungeons or if one is trying to be high class Multi-User Dimensions
These are "virtual-reality" or more precisely "virtual-community" systems
The goal is to set up a computer environment which resembles more or less faithfully the real world.
  • MOO's and MUD's involve people, places and things
MOO's are a modern object oriented implementation of the older MUD's and are developed at XEROX PARC in Palo Alto
