The Alpha World Historical Society
Taken after the idea started by Subgenius.
And continued by our many
Members
Alpha World is a virtual community first opened to the public in late June
1995. Those who provided content to this world are too numerous to mention,
but they know who they are and I want to thank them, new and old.
The AWHS Museum is a celebration of these endeavors. You may want to
peruse the Museum. It's located in Alpha World Prime: 1501.4n 500e 1.05a

Grand Opening Speech made on January 17, 1998.
In 1997, the purpose of this page was to give those who have chosen
to spend the better part of their waking moments moving rwx files around,
establishing relationships and exploring this wonderful place. Now it is
a thriving Society (organization) making a difference! This is a Society
devoted to furthering the preservation of the familiar world we have came
to know and love.
Now in 1999, we have successfully used this page, our expertise and
resources (thank you HamFon!! and AWCOM for our AWGZ!) to preserve AW in
it's Historic state and have formed a Society toward that end and
to make an impact on "the powers that be". Also I, for one, am happy that
we have been sucessful in having an active role in helping "the powers
that be" to implement this end. Read the AW
Historical Society Charter.
The Archived AWHS Teams List and all their information can be found
on the the
Archived Documentation Page.
Mauz is a long time member of the AWHS and an ardent follower of Cool
and Preservable Sites! See

sites you would like to have the AWHS archive for future preservation,
please email them to her at: mauz@tnlc.com
Digigardner (Bruce Damer, of the
Contact Consortium) donated this letter
of invitation to Alpha World, the initial letter sent to all World's
Chat users, in August 1995, to introduce the first interactive, graphically-based
community ever on the Internet!

from Sakamoto, an "old" user who was grateful for the work of the AWHS.
