I've been on Twitter a lot lately to keep up with real-time stuff as the community grows before our eyes. Finding some really cool worlds; I'll get a few of them written up for the blog, but if you want real-time updates my twitter account (mmaclaurin) is good to follow.

To catch up with mine and others' tweets, visit http://search.twitter.com and search 'kodu.'

Lots of Kodu going on in the twittersphere.

Emerging Community

One of the hardest parts of Kodu was launching without a central community. It's a long story; buy me a beer next time you're in Redmond and I'll cry into it for you.

What we have been betting on (big time) is that communities will start to self-organize, and they are. My favorite right now is http://kodu.moco.net, which is packed with very active, knowledgable creators. Lots of people are offering up their gamerTags and saying "share with me!" There's even one that's acting kind of like a server. Get in there!

Channel 9, the Microsoft Developer Network's community for unfiltered access to the people who devise Microsoft technologies, is featuring a fascinating video interview with Rico Malvar, managing director of Microsoft Research Redmond. Malvar, also a Microsoft distinguished engineer, shares a funny story about how he joined Microsoft, some of the technologies that have moved from Microsoft Research into Microsoft products, and how much he enjoys TechFest.
