The Importance of Avatars

Susan Wu was on a panel about Avatars at SXSW. She took good notes.

From the post:

"7. Why avatars are important:

There are going to be a bazillion virtual worlds coming online in the next several years. Every major media company is going to try to port all of their brands into some sort of virtual 3D environment.


These may be poorly designed, inferior products, but they are going to have the very real, very important impact of training the consumer to think about virtual worlds in a certain way. As product designers, we can help inform these big media brands who want to foray into virtual worlds."
