The VirginWorlds crew went to Texas for the 2008 Game Developers Conference and aside from recording audio, did some video just for fun. Darren's camera takes some passable video when

ton of audio and interesting notes collected for some upcoming audio podcasts, but for the moment, here's a
few shots of our ugly mugs. Be horrified.

VirginWorlds Podcast #70 - Making of a Podcast
The long awaited Making of a Podcast show is
finally done and ready for your consumption. No MMO news in this one -

have served me well. Hopefully they will serve you well too. Following
is a list of tools and sites I reference during the show. Enjoy, and
