"that are easily downloadable and usable without special accounts". someone has
to set up a server, run it, need accounts, etc. is it a tool readily usable out
of the box that people actually will need/use regularly. a secondlife or
quivalent is not. a terminal is. a wm is. a web browser is. ... if someone has
to set up a server themselves or register accounts somewhere else at all you
just failed the "useful to anyone" :)
