Platforms as Places
Nice summary on the state of platforms from Activate Consulting — and how gaming is quickly becoming the next, dominant tech platform.
“Everything that you can do on the web today, you’re going to be able to do inside of gaming; whether it’s shopping, social, or messaging… games have gone from something to play, to a place.”
The mobile platform analogy made in the interview is particularly astute. During mobile’s infancy, not a lot of folks would have bet that most of your digital world could exist on a mobile device in your pocket.
Pretty exciting stuff!
