Microsoft V-Chat is a freeware 3D chat program released in December 1995 by Microsoft. V-Chat allows people to interact in virtual rooms and using customized avatars. People could also create their own personal avatars.
It has now been discontinued; it can still be downloaded from other sites, such as download.com. V-Chat was just an experimental precursor to a more ambitious projected called V-Worlds, which was completed but never widely deployed.[citation needed]
