The on-campus labs at Virginia Tech have Telnet software for you to use, and there are a number of packages available for home and dorm use as well. For your convenience, we've made available for download two MOO clients, ZMud for DOS platforms and Muddweller for Macintoshes. If you would like to browse a larger selection of clients, you can learn about a wide array of these for Mac, Windows, or DOS, by looking at the MudMOO Clients page. The address of the MOO is athena.english.vt.edu . A Room With A MOO is the official on-line conferencing environment of the English Department of Virginia Tech.
Character creation is available to all English faculty, and to students by faculty request.
To log in, type the word 'connect' followed by a space, then your assigned username, another space, and your assigned password. Students in LIT courses will receive their name and password via e-mail. If you haven't received them by the time your class is meeting on the MOO, please contact your course leader. Currently, the obvious exits are north to the Information Desk, west to the Lounge, and east to the Classrooms. You see Announcement Board here.
