Free idea.

Article from Boing Boing on Matrix Online.

Create a company that specializes in providing players like these 20 mentioned who are A) not only game-savvy all around but 2) good at improv so they can further the game and make play better for everyone. Then get contracts from these MMORPGs to go and work the walls on that shit.

Would you be able to do it full time? Not yet, but isn't the point just to have a cool job like that?

Just think of your resume if you're an actor. "Well, last summer I was Laertes in 'Hamlet in the Park,' while I also logged four hundred hours as Muad'Dib in Dune Online."

And, like Broadway, when players start to drift away, you bring them back with a big name. "This week in Heroes Megaverse Online, Sam Jackson will be playing the role of Badass Supervillain Who Will Kill You Dead."

There you go. Free idea. Just remember me when you're rich and famous.

"Crazy, am I? We'll see whether I'm crazy or not."

Even Widge has to shut down sometimes

This is me.

No, really.

I am a writer, poet, spoken word performer, actor, singer, improviser, content creation and idea machine, freelance iconoclast, and the internet's janitor that dispenses pop culture wisdom to the protagonist of your choice. I have seen too many movies, read too many comic books, and when the zombies finally come, I'm the one you want to call. I sure as hell won't answer the phone, but it's the thought that counts. I advise people on the net, websites and technology, because I know these things instead of having a life or sleeping.

If you like something I've done, donate to the Widge Wants to Kill His Day Job Fund. Or if you'd like to hire me for a job, my rates are terribly reasonable. We thank you.
