Introduction

Now that the NDA for beta-testing Metaplace has been lifted, a bunch of users have started blogs about it, and I figured I might as well jump on the bandwagon.

I started alpha testing Metaplace back in December 2007, and I think the only day that I haven't logged into a Metaplace world is the day I was in San Diego at the Metaplace office, meeting the team.

If you don't know what Metaplace is, go check it out. As of this post, it's in Open Beta, so anyone can give it a try - signup is quick and painless. Metaplace, as a whole, is geared to pretty much anyone, whether you're just looking for some games to play (though it's still Beta, so the selection isn't huge, compared to sites like Kongregate and the like), looking to build your small corner of the internet, or you're a game or content developer looking for a flexible platform to work on.

If you do decide to give it a try, I can be found in the "metaplace" global chat channel during the (North American) day every weekday (work time), and off-and-on during evenings and weekends (family time). I'm happy to try to answer questions and to help with problems, or just to chat. We're friendly in that channel, so come say hi!
