Fullerton, Ticky, dir. Interview with Philip Rosedale . Four Corners, 2007.
---Summery---
The interview speaks of how virtual economies actually gain relevance in the R.L. simple because of the value that we give it. In the same manner that the world estimates the value of every form of currency, so does it estimate MMO currency. Now depending on the world will depend on the economic trade items and the value of the currency. Just like America imports goods from china, the MMO will do the same. But in short, we must stop looking at the VR or MMO as just a game or escape and realize that they are their own country with imperfections and reality.

The publisher of this interview are sponsored by Four Corners, whom appear to be a small new organization. From the links and general search I have concluded that this organization is considered small. From the interview themselves and the other information on the site, one can see that this information has some validity. But its not clear if this is academic or pop.

(side note for readers: Yes i just copied and pasted the same evaluation for both summaries but my reasoning behind this lazy move is that both are the same. What i am trying to say is that i would rather be honest then fabricate different ways of saying the same thing.)
