Soob: not sure that it matters much, given the hermeticism I sometimes display. I've also recently bought a 37" LCD HDTV, hooked my computer up, and can now play WoW in widescreen crisp graphics. Still, an hour or two at most of WoW begins to bore....

Arherring: MMORPGs are probably still very much in their infancy. I'm ambivalent. Quite obviously, they could become much more important and relevant to everyday living for most people -- eventually -- or else they might remain an extreme distraction, an opiate of the masses so to speak.

The book I recently reviewed at D5GW, Daemon, has quite a bit of MMORPG elements to it.

Very cool stuff.

Thanks for the heads-up!

It was caught by the spam-filter, so I went thru and approved it.

Glad to see you still live, CGW, and have come up for air from WoW! :-)

AE,

I left a comment on your post, but it's been in moderation for two days!

Everyone:

Alas! Shakespeare got there first. (Typical!)

All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages.

Nice. Never'd heard of him. Good Roots style. Dig it.

So true. I used to play Ultima Online, similar to WoW. Developing a character is just like developing a blog. It takes time and interaction with other 'players'. Just commenting without blogging is like having a 'Guest' profile, where you don't get to completely make yourself in cyberspace.

A beautiful video, a beautiful song, a beautiful album.

Thanks for the introduction.
