Next Virtual World SIG meeting January 28, 2008

The shape of virtual worlds to come will be shown January 28, 2008 at our Virtual World SIG!  Of course,  you have come to expect as much.

I wish I could say more at this time, but suffice to say the virtual worlds to come will not be like dear ol’ dad’s virtual worlds.

Save the date – it will be worth it. More details forthcoming.
