Virtual Worlds Management Industry Forecast 2008

December 18th, 2007

Virtual Worlds News interviewed a whole bunch of folks in the category, to get forecasts of what is happening over the next year.

The answers boil down to “Reply hazy, try again.” Growth, and bubble bursting. 2d, no 3d. Second Life tanks, Second Life dominates. Interoperability, no interoperability.

Everyone does seem to agree “more kids’ worlds.”
