<p>In this show, we discuss the gaming and digital entertainment industry.  Chris Klaus of <a title="_blank" target="_blank" href="http://www.kaneva.com">Kaneva</a> fame dropped by to chat with us, so you won&#8217;t want to miss that.  Santa Claus also stopped in (and told Scott that he wasn&#8217;t getting a Nintendo Wii for Christmas!); and you won&#8217;t want to miss Mike and the &#8220;mystery hat&#8221; (photo below!)</p>

<p><strong>Shownotes:</strong></p>
<p>In this show, we focus on the gaming and digital entertainment industry in Georgia. What areas should entrepreneurs be exploring?  Can two guys in a garage still compete with the big game publishers and studios? What are the big trends? How are virtual worlds evolving? Is the consumer/user demographic shifting?<br />
Tune in and find out!</p>
<p>Unfortunately, there was a little bit of natural room reverb in parts of the show &#8211; this was due to the addition of the third mic for our guest.  It still sounds fine, but just a niggling little detail.  Don&#8217;t worry, we&#8217;ll get that little kink worked out for the next show!</p>
<p>Our format is a little out of the norm as far as podcasts go. We treat our efforts as a true &#8220;show&#8221; rather than a super-concise (limited) vehicle for delivery of information. Therefore, the podcasts can run a bit long. While we try to have very substantive discussions, we also try to have a lot of fun along the way (and that tends to elongate the programming a wee bit.) <img src='http://www.startuplounge.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  Our theory is that if we are having fun during the show, hopefully, you will be having a little fun listening as well.</p>
<p>Here is the breakdown for the show, in case you want to skip past our rather lengthy opening segment.</p>
