About the SIG:

Virtual worlds have emerged amidst the mix of gaming, social networking, and 3D modeling technologies. Now they are the focus of considerable attention as a platform for media, virtual economies, and collaborative work. Many virtual worlds are created for and rely on developer-generated content as an integral part of their collaborative plan. This SIG will facilitate the collaborations and business partnerships required to build these virtual and emulated spaces.

SDForum’s Virtual Worlds SIG brings together the developers, programmers, and visionaries required to build virtual world platforms and their interconnected applications.

We have a couple of ways to stay connected:
