Open Virtual; A Google 20% Production
Thanks to Brad Berens for bringing this to my attention as I was ready to leave the office and get in an early night. Thanks for keeping me up all night Brad! 
Anyhow, I was alerted to Lively by Brad via Read Write Web and had no choice but to jump right in. Rather than writing a lengthy analysis (you can go to RWW for that) I decided to document my initial travels through the virtual world as I attempt to set up shop for A Media Circus.
For now I am only going to make a few high level points, but you can be sure you will hear more about this from me in the future!
- Think the distributed web for virtual worlds
- Why contain a virtual world when you can make it embeddable?
- Remember Sketch Up?
- How many retailers out there are ready for this?
- This is not one world, but the web is one web and all of it is virtual.
That is all of the commentary that I am offering right now. I hope that you enjoy my PPT and would love for everyone to stop by A Virtual Media Circus. Look over to you left in the sidebar, just click on it and you are in!
