GameDev Day '07 Agenda and Additions
GameDev Day '07 is this Saturday at Harvard and I'm very pleased with how well the agenda has come together. We have an incredibly strong group of presenters from the gaming industry with interesting sessions throughout the day.
First, a change in logistics. We are now in Emerson Hall (room 105), which is right next door to our original Sever Hall.
In exciting news, we're going to be joined by Kent Quirk and John Lester from Linden Lab (makers of Second Life) to speak about virtual worlds and technology!
Add to Kent and John our lineup of Dan Scherlis, Mark Mullin, Michael Cummings, Darius Kazemi and Derek Horton, and it's going to be a great day!
Full details are here:
There's a cool flyer that Edwin put together as well.
