Well, not really. Servers are persistent, but they're player run and only those visiting that server have access to that persistent world, in effect it's only more persistent than the single player if there are people constantly on the server.
Yeah, I could have been more clear about that in my comments. Let me fix that:
xander, if he were writing more clearly wrote:Minecraft seems to have persistent worlds.
There is not one overarching persistent world, but any player can create a persistent world in which several other players can interact. Given that IV is only two people at this point, this seems about the best that you could ask for in terms of persistence.
