As more and more marketing, kids, gaming worlds come on line, I continue to dwell on the business applications of the future. I encountered former Linden Lab’s Cory Ondrejika’s presentation on the future of virtual worlds indirectly from the Electric Sheep blog.
This presentation is very interesting even audio-less. My favorite slide is when Cory discussed 5-10 years out assuming Moore’s law everything will be 8-64 times cheaper, faster, and longer lasting. He helps visualize what a 25x would look like in this slide:
If we imagine an iPhone/iTouch with nearly a terabyte of memory and 2x the processing power of an XBOX 360, then meaningful mobile presence in virtual worlds is pretty easy to see. The entire presentation can be found on here.
