Abstract
We are on, the threshold of a step-change in Internet services, with i mplications perhaps greater than those arising from the introduction o f the WWW graphical interface. Current developments, such as VRML and Java, promise a future of interactive, multiparticipant, multimedia en vironments and applications. This article outlines the background to t hese developments and describes early demonstrators which provide a gl impse of future services.
