The swanky little boutique suite on Santa Monica’s Main Street greeted me in a way that I hadn’t expected. The feel of the unit was very much like its predecessor, the PSP, with a wide body, glossy black surface, and wide screen. Sony’s LiveArea interface was definitely designed for the social gamer in mind.

There was the usual cogent presentation by Brian Solis on the future of PR in which he implored us to get beyond the echo chamber of Silicon Valley and Techmeme and focus on staying on the radar screen of real America. He obviously believes this since he has become CEO of TopSpin Media – a firm designed to do just that.

What does the world have in store for the mobile games market, and how do mobile games developers look at the world?

Many “tech companies” now have green screens. And costume & set designers. These days it’s Santa Monica and Venice. In LA the VC shift is clearly to Santa Monica / Venice, home of Rustic Canyon, Greycroft, Anthem and just about every incubator (Amplify, Launchpad, Mucker, Science).

For us, being near Santa Monica was key. Around the Santa Monica area, it happens to be a landlords market with less than 6% availability. We turned one into a conference room and another one into a "lounge" with sofas, ottomans and comfortable, funky chairs and a flat-screen TV. Space is tight.
