I would rather say that Web2.0 has a lot of features that WoW can borrow from it. I somehow do not think that the reverse is at all an option. :)

I also think it’d be useful for us to have persistent, IRC-like chatrooms. Group chat IM sessions are transient at best. In most cases, it has crudely copied common internet technology, and crippled it in copying – IRC is one of the examples I’d have listed for that point of view. Great post i look forward to reading more.

Actually, I think WoW should borrow more from the web 2.0 than inspire it. In most cases, it has crudely copied common internet technology, and crippled it in copying – IRC is one of the examples I’d have listed for that point of view. There’s a more in-depth explanation already over at http://www.unwesen.de/articles/wow_design_improvements_chatting .

Screw the US dentists, I got quoted $25,000 to fix my teeth in the US. So I found a dentist in Mexico and was only charged $11,500. This was 2 years ago and I have never regreted it.

[...] Inspired by somewhat recent article from 9rules’ Scrivs’, “What WoW can teach Web 2.0″, I decided to write a similar article regarding some of the mistakes that I’ve seen some blogs making, even big ones. [...]

You’re spot on-gamers’ communities and, even virtual worlds provide a ‘purer’ experience than most web apps and social networks. I blogged about the mashing of virtual world communities with social networks as the future of social networking and a potential strategic direction for Friendster in a post called Why I Would Buy Friendster? on my blog geraldjoseph.typepad.com.

[...] WISDUMP: What WoW Can Teach Web 2.0 – “Maybe its not fair to compare an online game with static sites that donâ€™t offer the interactivity of an online universe. But sit back and take a look at how great some of these sites could be if they implemented what WoW does just a bit more into their fold.“ [...]

Whoa, very cool. All the connections in the world. I work for Linden Lab, makers of Second Life. I came across here while learning more about 9rules and Paul Scrivens!

Scrivs, are you a Second Life Resident too?

You may know we have a “frequent update” dilemma in which too many updates gets complained about too because the downtime jostles aside planned events. At least now it’s planned for every two weeks, and in the future, we hope to move towards a “heterogeneous” grid that doesn’t need to down in one fell swoop.

I also think it’d be useful for us to have persistent, IRC-like chatrooms. Group chat IM sessions are transient at best.

Keep up the wonderful work and t’care! :D
