Many of the TIG contributors traveled to London this week for the Virtual Worlds Forum in London.
Unfortunately, due to an incident at the meeting venue, the event had to be canceled. Quite a few attendees switched location to the Hospital Club in Covent Garden for some networking and an Unconference on Tuesday. A number of industry luminaries were there, including TIG contributor Dr. Richard Bartle, as well as Jessica Mulligan, Raph Koster, and Ian Hughes.
The kind folks at SXSW held a party at Digress City Monday night, which was a nice mixer of the VWF crowd, as well as attendees of a number of other conferences in London this week.
Overall, it was an unfortunate circumstance for the attendees and organizers, but we were able to make a little lemonade from the lemons handed to us in the circumstances.
I now travel back to the US for a bit , and am speaking again at the ConEx Nature Conservancy panel on the 14th & 15th of the month. If you are in Vancouver for ConEx, please drop by the 'Blogs, Wikis, and Virtual Realities, New Media Tools for Conservationists' panel in the 'Values and Society' track, and say hello to the virtual me!
Very helpful many thanks.
