Because I Don’t Spend Enough Time Online

I found out about PMOG through a tweet from Howard Rheingold and signed up for a beta account. I’ve been playing for 9 days and have made it to level 3.   (That isn’t that big a deal.  Getting to level 4 is a little more of a challenge.) Recently, the game–a Passively Multiplayer Online Game–was open to everyone. The game rewards you for surfing the web but also encourages collaboration, whether it is for good or evil. I’ll let School Library Journal provide the details so I can get back to playing. They suggest that PMOG is an example of Web 3.0. I really don’t want to go there…I’m still trying to explain Web 2.0 to people.
