Using Microsoft like you were born within its fleshy digital walls

Today we went over our basic Microsoft Office skills, the usual junk like mail merging and all that necessary info. Rather exciting, except for the Excel stuff, what a chore man, a total chore.

In the second, more interesting half of the tutorial we explored virtual worlds. W#e decided to take a trip through Active worlds, a chat room in which you are given an avatar and made to float around whilst discussing politics, food and other non-threatening topics. At one point i mentioned a rude word, which is actually a scientific term, and was warned for language by a floating pixie. I told her off and fled into a portal which led me deep into what i could only assume was an ocean. These chat rooms seem to be fun places for some, with alot of the members knowing each other quiet well, suggesting that a few regulars frequent the rooms. But not my cup of tea, really, i prefer the friendship forged on the battlefield, specifically in Battlefield 2 whilst storming a desert palace in the middle of a dust storm.

GTA4 soon, i assume.
