01.30.08Technology Trend MapImaginative piece of speculation and crystal ball gazing from Ross Dawson is meant to stimulate discussion in a fun and provocative way. Between Digitilisation and Virtual Worlds lie Happiness and Constant Partial Attention before potentially veering off into individualism followed by...um, litigation. P.S. I'm all for karma capitalism but I'm not sure what reality mining means. Sounds like work to me, and reality is hard enough.

11.02.07Virtual World Growth StatisticsWonderful visuals of statistics for virtual worlds, and fairly up-to-date. Also, source of endless argument over how to define and value a subscription. Would be incredible if we could get this data by "hours played" rather than just pure subscriptions - which would be weighted in any case by level of subscription. However, if nothing else, the trend lines are intriguing (and in Flash - sorry I wasn't up for a screen grab). See the stats here.
