I do not understand the definition of “awareness information.”  If it’s security, i didn’t notice anything about security.

Aside to partnering with existing content providers that have strong brands and an existing following, Worlds also encourages individuals to create their own virtual spaces, communities and unique Avatars with easy-to-use tools.

The purpose is like an on-line community like second life or a virtual myspace.

The coordination mechanisms allow visitors to interact with each other, teleport throughout the Worlds environment as well as participate in shared experiences.

Worlds users have a personal avatar which allows them to move, view, voice chat, send email, join discussion groups, listen to music, watch videos, and shop within the Worlds community.

In my opinion I feel a little awkward cause the people you see and meet are created images of what they want you to think they represent.  You can’t get a true feeling about what kind of person someone is without being face-to-face.  The video chatting is the closest thing they have to that…but, again, in my opinion, it’s unreliable.
