If you’re at Web 2.0 Expo, come to my talk tomorrow, Wednesday from 3:20 - 4:10 pm in room 2009, about “the Future of Online Gaming & Virtual Worlds.” I’ve put together a wonderful group of panelists that includes:
- Gene Yoon, VP Business Affairs for LindenLab / SecondLife
- Craig Sherman, CEO of Gaia Online
- Lane Merrifield, CEO of Club Penguin
- Raph Koster, President of Areae
- Joi Ito, Chairman of Creative Commons, Board member of Mozilla, and my World of Warcraft guild leader
I’m psyched because Gaia Online and Club Penguin are both talking publicly for the first time ever about their businesses. These are two of the most exciting web companies you’ve probably never heard of, unless you have kids between the ages of 6-15.
I’m taking question suggestions! Post your comments.
We’ll be talking about why “online gaming and virtual worlds” is incredibly important to the future of the Web as a whole. And maybe delving into SecondLife’s furry monetization strategy.
