Raph Koster is planning to introduce Metaplace, through his new startup, Areae. It is generating a lot of buzz for a variety of reasons. One, is that Ralph Koster has excellent credentials. Among other things, he has been formerly involved with Sony Online and directed the Star Wars Galaxies MMO.

Metaplace has a number of planned innovations including access through a standard browser rather than a specific richer client application. Most importantly, people will be able to “create” their own virtual worlds.
