Less than a month away ... our "spring break"

Release 1.0 / PC Forum / Theme:

"Erosion of Power: Users in charge"

Interesting piece from BusinessWeek on Games amd Movies
Game first, movie later:

James Cameron's Game Theory

And the online sidebar, interview with James:
Online Extra: Syncing Hollywood and Gamers

In particular:
" I want to see developers create games in which players can add to the worlds as they go along, so you can see what hundreds of thousands of people in this game environment can create. It's like each is being handed a tool set.... Instead of creating a $50 million game, you're creating $2 million games and letting them grow themselves. "

Maybe a way for "Holly-Would" to avoid the disintermediation of the long tail ?
