Via Colin Cardwell, here are two podcasts from IBM that discuss MMORPGs and real money trading.
Part One introduces massively multiplayer online games, discusses how game makers are extending the online experience to mobile devices, and explores how the online gaming environment is pioneering the Internet of the future.
Part Two discusses the community ethic that has arisen around online games, the outlook for the industry, and how online games can have a role to play in business, politics and urban planning.
Short and sweet too, well worth a listen.
