Games for Change has opened early registration.
I’m going to be in New York right at the same time, doing a panel thing for Harper’s, but I haven’t thought about going or not. Hmm.

I was reading this article about aSmallWorld, the country-club-like social networking service, and it sparked some thoughts about exclusivity.
An environment like aSmallWorld is a a private club, but not one like most of the other social networking services, which use exclusivity mostly as a way to seem cool but in fact want to invite in as many folks as possible. No, in aSmallWorld, they mean it when they say they don’t want you as a member. It’s populated by celebrities and the rich.
There aren’t any MMOs like this, but there sure are ones that are private. Exclusivity comes in many flavors.
