<H1>Welcome to TMI</H1>
The Mud Institute is a body dedicated to the advancement and support of
muds and their users. The word "mud" originates from the acronym MUD, meaning
Multi User Dungeon. It has come to mean
<A HREF="http://earth.via.nl:2217/www/misc/ftp.html">any</A>
multiuser virtual reality, whether used as a game or not.
eg Abermud, BSX, DGD, Dikumud, LPmud, MOO, MUCK, MUG, MUSE, MUSH, etc.
