From Bjorlyn Loon, early notice to event partners:
METANOMICS Philip Rosedale on Hope, Anxiety and Virtual Worlds
Monday, January 19, 2009 Noon to 1:00 PM Pacific Time
Philip Rosedale kicks off the Metanomics Spring 2009 season! Host Rob
Bloomfield engages the Linden Lab Founder and CEO in a broad-ranging
discussion on the hopes that virtual worlds can fulfill in these
anxious times. Expect Philip to share his views on: why he loves not
being a CEO, but why Barack Obama will make a great one; what the
death of Google's Lively says about Linden Lab's strategy; why Linden
Lab is profitable when YouTube isn't; how Second Life's economy is
faring in the wake of real-world crises and OpenSpace pricing changes;
why enterprises are flocking to Second Life; and why Second Life
residents both hope for and fear change. Come join us LIVE, Monday,
January 19, Noon to 1 Pacific Time, to ask your own questions!
