My favorite conference of the year, GDC San Francisco, is almost upon us! The date, time and subject of my lecture is noted below. If you’ll be attending and would like to meet up, drop me a note. :-)

Digital Distribution: How to Deal with the Parts that Suck and Capitalize on Everything Else
Date/Time: Thursday (March 11, 2010) 10:30am — 11:30am
Location (room): Room 303, South Hall
Format: 60-minute Lecture

Summary: This session will briefly summarize the current state of digital distribution across major marketplaces (console, Facebook, mobile, etc), examine the major challenges associated with digital distribution, and provide concrete strategies for success in these marketplaces. It should be of interest to both developers and publishers large and small, as it will address strategic errors commonly made by multi-billion dollar publishers and tiny startups alike. If you’re struggling to pick an ecosystem to focus on, or if you’ve picked an ecosystem but aren’t sure how to maximize your chances of success within it, this lecture is for you.
