Living in WoW Blog

coole Studie, das könnte ich mir ganz locker auch für WoW-Spielchen vorstellen. Nur mit dem Unterschied zu jetzigen Interfaces (Maus + Keyboard + Headset), dass man nachher behaupten kann, dass man wirklich gerackert hat, bedenkt man die vielen Armbewegungen :-)

Joi, erfolgreicher Geschäftsmann, in einem Artikel namens World of Warcrack bei Wired.com:

I started playing a year ago and have become custodian of We Know, a guild of about 250 people worldwide: medics, CEOs, bartenders, mothers, soldiers, students. We assemble in-game to mount epic six-hour raids that require some members to wake at 4 am and others to stay up all night. Outside the game, we stay in touch using online forums, a wiki, blogs, and a mailing list – plus a group voice chat, which I’ve connected to my home stereo so I can hear the guild’s banter while I’m cooking dinner. I have never been this addicted to anything before. My other hobbies are gone. My daily blogging regimen has taken a hit. And my social life revolves more and more around friends in the game.
