ArcheAge (10x) and SwordArtOnline (1x)

You can play ArcheAge for free online, if you download and install it. It is both a “theme park” and/or a “sand box” live single and/or multiplayer game. You will learn and/or risk experiencing and/or enjoying “being lost” in a virtual world, where you may build/conquer/craft/solo/team. Sweet!

You can also watch SwordArtOnline, if you have a NetFlix (not free) account, and watch the episodes. What would happen if you signed up for an online single and/or multiplayer game that you could not log out from and if your physical life depended on your virtual survival?

Both virtual worlds I find worth watching:
. ArcheAge requires frequent computer interaction
. SAO requires minimal computer interaction

Either way, may you choose how you play and continue!

Why is the the Google Android Gmail App so hard to use?

I tried so hard to respond to a gmail message today, using my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 which uses Google’s Android operating system and Google’s Android Gmail App.

Google’s Gmail Android App is very good at screening my daily emails. But it is SO hard to use when trying to Reply, as in, if I advertently go somewhere else on the device, then come back, there is NO EDIT OR SEND BUTTON for REPLIES.

Really… in this regard Google (Gmail) is as bad as Microsoft (YouTube) in getting mobile apps right. They leave you (mobile wise) hanging and having to go back to (shudder) a LAPTOP device to get it right.

Reflections on Virtual Worlds

Several years ago I was a beta tester for a brand new, computerized, “city building” game. I was also learning how to engage in on-line forums and on-line reference services such as Wikipedia.

While my primary focus at that time was modeling for the purpose of expanding technological humanitarian growth, I learned new technologies and applications, and, expanded my focus from “real” to include “virtual” realities.

In the area of the tangible, we have Arts, Engineering, and Sciences. In the area of the intangible, we have Economics, Community, and Spirituality.

One model of the growth of any one human is that there are four personalized eras lasting about 20-30 years apiece: Exploration, Achievement, Wisdom, and Transcendence (EAWT). Another model distinguishes four domains of growth including Society: Individual and Collective, crossed with Internal and External. In this model, EAWT would be Individual/Internal. All models are lies; some are useful.

The current best platforms for online 3-D virtual worlds are Second Life and Open Simulator. There is a 50:50 chance that new platform technologies will compete with or supplant them in the next 10 or so years. There is an advantage to learn and engage, now, with either or both of these platforms.  Motivations include personal interest, education, learning, entertainment, commercial, other.

New technologies complement contemporary technologies and rarely eliminate them. The Cloud-Based Office has not replaced, for example, the Paper-Based Office. Nobel Science Prizes have not replaced, for example, Dalai Lama Publications.

“There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.”
