The FireBox is a virtual reality tool that allows users to experience the Internet in a whole new light. Instead of thinking about the Internet as made up of various pages, the inventor of The FireBox saw the online world as so much more than that. This new technology allows people to explore the Internet in a 3D manner.
While this technology is new, the potential for it is expansive. Many times people on the Internet are simply an unknown face, and could be potentially harmful. If browsing was adjusted, the Internet could be an alternative reality. That person who just commented on your blog post? You could pop in and say hi to pick their brains a bit more and see what they really thought.
