Amy Jo Kim on “Game Mechanics for Social Media” from Startup2Startup
Startup2Startup is a fantastic monthly “geek entrepreneur” dinner in Palo Alto organized by Dave McClure that brings experienced entrepreneurs, startup “rookies,” and VC’s together under one roof for a night of networking and discussion.
Last week, Amy Jo Kim, CEO of social gaming startup ShuffleBrain (the makers of PhotoGrab), gave an excellent presentation on “Applying Game Mechanics to Social Media.” In it, Kim talks about the key ways game developers and social application developers can employ similar game mechanic concepts to create better experiences.
