Gaming & Social Media Conference 2012: Trends and Applications in Gaming
and Social Media
3 - 5 October 2012 -- Singapore Polytechnic, Singapore

It is widely noted that visiting social networking sites and playing
online games are the major past times for many Internet users all around
the world. Interestingly, the boundary between social media and gaming
has been blurring. Online gaming sites have since long adopted
discussion forums and ranking mechanisms to foster player interactions.
Social networking sites are providing spaces and features to easily
connect games, challenge playmates and even publish achievements.
In the new social media environment, there are now games where players
can create their own content and develop it along with other players.
Such social media games allow 'massive' spectatorship with immediate
communities on an epic scale through distributed computing in the
clouds. This has enhanced social connections, allowing broader
discussions with total strangers in a fast and dynamic environment.
We would like to invite researchers, professionals, developers, company
management officers to share your views and opinions on these two
