Graphical interactive interface for immersive online communities
First Claim
1. A method in which a user interacts within an immersive online community having intelligent virtual objects, said method comprising the steps of:
- a user selecting a set of characteristics to represent a first intelligent virtual object wherein each of said characteristics is associated with a personality specified by the user;
said first intelligent virtual object interacting with other intelligent virtual objects, utilizing predetermined interface tools such that said other intelligent virtual objects receive real-time responses to stimuli initiated by said other intelligent virtual objects; and
said first intelligent virtual object interactively passing user generated content between said other intelligent virtual objects and said user under administrative controls.

Abstract
The present invention discloses a computer system within a computer network having multiple computers connected together using telecommunications mechanisms for graphically interacting within immersive online communities. A user selects a set of desired characteristics associated with a personality for creation of a first intelligent virtual object. The first intelligent virtual object interacts with other intelligent virtual objects within the immersive online community utilizing predetermined interface tools such that said other intelligent virtual objects receive real-time responses to stimuli initiated by said other intelligent virtual objects. The first intelligent virtual object interactively passes user generated content between said other intelligent virtual objects and said user under administrative controls.
