Beloola: A Brief Introduction

I was up at 3:00 a.m. this morning with insomnia, so rather than try to get back to sleep, I got up, made a pot of coffee, and started blogging 🙂

And I kept a window open to the RyanSchultz.com Discord, where a lively discussion about various virtual worlds was kept up by numerous members (as I like to call them, “my people”).

And one of them, yodorovvv, mentioned a virtual world called Beloola. And I immediately asked, “Beloola? What’s that??”

I checked, and yes, I actually had visited Beloola before! I already had my username and password saved in my Chrome web browser. I had just completely forgotten about it, since I first visited it back in 2017 or so. (This is an occupational hazard of a blogger who tries to cover too many social VR platforms and virtual worlds!)

Beloola (which, for some reason, I keep mistyping as “Baloola” or “Bellola” because my brain is telling that’s how it should be spelled) is a Web browser-based virtual world that has been around for several years, and never really took off. They do have a few themed experiences, like the ones for the Golden State Warriors and San Francisco Giants basketball teams:

Another product to add to my ever-expanding list of social VR platforms and virtual worlds!
