Interesting insight on virtual worlds being the next disruptive platform.

  Yeah, I thought it was strange when he first mentioned it, but when he put it in the context of a platform, I realized that it might be something bigger than just a place where geeks go and fly around. There might be some commercial aspects to virtual worlds in the distant future.

    Agreed, I think we've been seeing a slight preview of this. The recent google acquisition of lively was what brought the whole concept of virtual worlds to my attention. I'm sure that platform will serve as a testground for some ideas. I also think that possibly social networking will move into this space as well (think friends meeting up in virtual spaces) and advertising will definitely follow.
