Comment on A UI Bug in Gmail’s New Look by Rakan

Thank you for your comment! I totally agree with you, it seems I was not very successful in describing the issue as I wanted. My point really was that it’s looks ironic that no Googler faced that issue yet and tried to fix either Chrome’s loading bar UI or Gmail’s UI. It seems some Googlers aren’t using their own browsers ;)

This is not a UI bug. This is just how the browser status bar is in Chrome. The site UI has nothing to do with this bar you see down there. This bar will appear at that point for any site you visit with chrome.

what if one of these virtual persons imagin an virtual person on there virtual internet and so on it’ll be crazy
but in scince there is still no clear idea to give the machine the ability to think by it self
so even it’s hard idea to be done now but even though it’ll be fun to interact with virtual people that is not controlod by human

there is a cartoon show who have the same idea name “mega man x”
if u want to cheak

Peace be upon you,

I got the name of the movie from my friend who is a movie lover like me.
The movie is The Thirteenth Floor. The IMDB link is:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0139809/

Check it! It is awesome.

Best regards,

@Hussam Kazah

Peace be upon you too,
The the idea of the movie is also wonderful, I hope you can remember the name and post it here.

Actually I’m surprised a little bit, because I believe no body understood the important idea that I presented here about Second Life or some people just don’t know Second Life. I’m pretty sure that this idea will be the next big hit on Second Life. I think this might be in the next two years because Second Life is still not so popular. But common imagine all web companies create virtual websites for the virtual people in Second Life. As I said a virtual social network for the virtual people to contact!

I believe introducing/inventing a virtual web on Second Life will lead to a whole new industry.

All the best.

Peace be upon you,

There is a movie actually about what you are saying. Its name escapes my mind for the moment. A detective working on a case where a professor who died leaves clues inside a virtual realm. The professor was part of creating this virtual realm that you can access using a cyber helmet. What happens is that a character from the virtual realm gets out of the virtual realm to the detective world by taking over the mind of his operator. And at the end of the movie it turns out that the detective world is also a virtual realm to another world. And if I remember correctly the detective goes from his world to the “real world” and takes over the mind of his operator.

If I remember the name or come across it in imdb I will send you the name.

Best regards,

Hussam Kazah

Thanks Rakan for directing me to your blog page.
Your thoughts are totally normal and not crazy. Check Steven Spielberg’s movie AI and you will understand what can AI do to our life combined with virtual environments.
Your idea about 2nd order and 3rd and more order of virtuality is interesting and expresses a great imagination.
keep thinking…

Actually someone read my post and emailed me and said that nearly the
same idea was also imagined by a professor in Oxford!
here is the website:

I just added two extra dimensions which is the ability of artificial
agents to use and develop their own web and then of course the crazy
idea which is the invention of artificial-artificial agents!!
