Here comes the “Immersive Internet”
O’Driscoll, 2009
How many usually think
of virtual worlds…
What are Virtual Worlds?
• Persistent, computer-simulated, immersive environments
• Shared socialization spaces with interactive content• Economic activity and transactions
The number of virtual worlds and users continues to rapidly increase
