Michael, Matt and Steven discuss social networking capabilities by using Twitter, BlueTwit and other examples of (near-)instant communications, challenges of virtual currency and VoIP, as well as the increasing focus on games and gaming for learning and leadership development.

Michael R was presenting at Columbia University this week and despite advances in virtual worlds still could not be in two places at the same time.

Steven puts out an appeal for reputable roofing help for his home in Seattle.
