Excerpt:
Ever wanted to experience life in the Muslim world but didn't have enough money to fly to Cairo?
The first-ever virtual version of the Muslim world was recently launched online.
Muxlim Pal lets you adopt an animated avatar and interact with others online in a virtual world governed by the rules of Islam.
You can shop, socialize in a beach cafe and, of course, pray at a mosque.
Aimed at Muslims and non-Muslims, the website aims to foster understanding and communication between East and West.
