Title: Blogs and Gamers Post by: Daniel Franklin on October 07, 2007, 09:36:58 AM A gamer is, in a general sense, one who plays games. However, gamers are distinct from simple game players by their devotion to gaming as a hobby: they are game fans. The term is often self-assigned. There are many communities of gamers around the world. Many of these exist in web rings, forums and other virtual communities, as well as college clubs. Stores specializing in games often serve as a meeting place to organize groups of players. Prior to the emergence of the Internet, many play-by-mail games developed communities similar to those that can be found among today's online games. This phenomena often makes gamers want to share experiences, character journals and their own imaginary worlds with other gamers. ePhem, still in beta, intends to transform itself in a gamer specialized free blog service. MPortela is an experienced webdesigner and SEO that tries to specialize on gaming themes from The SAGA Project to ePhem. |
