        Is QuakeWorld still the way to play Quake 1 online, or is their a
 new program these days that everyone uses? I was looking online, and
 seen the QuakeWold client development has stopped at v2.3 from 1998.

Hi Larry,
    Yes, 2.30 is the current client-side version.  This includes the GL 
version also.  Servers are up.

http://equake.quakeworld.nu/
This is a complete package which includes FuhQuake along with the All Seeing 
Eye and various other useful files, tools and utilities.

FuhQuake is the most up-to-date and commonly-used version of QuakeWorld at 
the moment. I think some tournaments in Europe and elsewhere may actually 
require it to enter (along with an associated security module).
http://www.fuhquake.net/ (old site) or http://fuhquake.quakeworld.nu/ (new 
site)

(Network access to quakeworld.nu from the U.S. seems poor at the moment, not 
sure why, and fuhquake.net seems to be gone entirely. Similarly, online 
Quake activity seems to have taken a nosedive, coinciding with the 
near-simultaneous release of Half-Life 2, Doom III, and Halo 2; sometimes 
these dips in activity are at least partly temporary, until people get bored 
with the new games and go back to the old.)

But for routine online play, the last version of QuakeWorld should still 
work, I suppose.
