So What’s Next

A nice, short article on what’s next in the technological pipeline from Tech.co.uk

It’s all about how we will react with the virtual world; VR, Gesture Recognition, electronic paper – a good jump-point.

Could Interactive Narratives become less interactive in Hollywood?

Is the massive popularity and success of these games going to follow them on big screen? This is an article that could possibly help us think a bit. http://us.i1.yimg.com/videogames.yahoo.com/feature/gaming-on-the-big-screen/1171484

Open Source

I was specifically thinking of Jane when I stumbled across this – http://opendesigns.org/ – but it fits in with what we have been learning about – networks and collaboration, democratisation etc.

Viral marketing – honestly!

Viral Marketing – YouTube – So you want people to interact with your website – read this. You just have to abandon any morals but hey, you’ll be a celebrity.

Artistic integrity seems to go out of the window. I think this is an important post because we need to be aware of what is happening out there.

Nintendo Europe website change

Nintendo Europe are about to change their website. It was initially set up in 2002 and the remake is going live at the end of November sometime.

Nintendo have a busy site with lots of information to disseminate, the current site is OK so it will be interesting to see how the makeover goes from a user interaction perspective.

I just caught this today so I thought I’d share it so we can see what a large corporation thinks about providing interactivity on the web and critique its change.
