A plurality of users in a virtual reality environment are registered over a network to share information. A three dimensional representation of information to be shared over the network is placed into a shared area of the virtual reality environment. The information is then transferred to all of the registered users. The registered users may be listed on a whiteboard visible to all in the environment. The information to be shared may be placed onto a conference table metaphor to indicate it is available for all registered users.
