16. Seth Priebatsch (SCVNGR): game layer
on top of the world
The last decade was the decade of
social where the framework in which we
connect with other people was built, this
next decade will be the decade where the
game framework is built, where the
motivations that we use to actually
influence behavior, and the framework in
which that is constructed, is decided
upon, and that's really important.
